What is Kombucha

Kombucha is a carbonated tea-based beverage that is often drunk for its health benefits or medicinal reasons. There is scientific info supporting health benefits but unfortunately few studies or have been conducted mainly due to the expense of such medical studies. There are many centuries of popular stories telling of health benefits attributed to the tea. Kombucha is sold in stores but can easily be made at home by fermenting tea using a solid mass of yeast and bacteria often nicknamed a SCOBY. This produces the kombucha culture which is also often popularly referred to as the "mushroom" but it is not a true mushroom. It slowly forms on the very surface of the tea while the tea is fermenting and resembles a whitish colored pancake.

Testimonial - Probiotic - Stomach: "This tea tastes amazing! I just made my first batch and I'm drinking it so fast I'm going to actually have to make a bigger batch next time. It's balancing out my gut and I'm noticing less sugar cravings than usual. I'm lovin' that! It's only been a few days so I"ll have to update later on other noticeable improvements. This company's attention to detail with how to brew the tea, etc is impeccable, I can't appreciate that enough! Thank you so much!... D.S."
