How to make Kombucha
- 1 kombucha starter (100 ml)
- 50 g sugar
- 900 ml water
- 2 tsp (2 tea bags) black tea leaves
Prepare 200 ml tea and stir in sugar. Cool down and
pour into a large glass jar, add remaining 700 ml
water. Add kombucha starter and cover with lid (enable
airflow). Leave to ferment for 7-14 days. SCOBY
will start forming at the top. When you like the taste
of kombucha, save the SCOBY and 100 ml of kombucha.
Use it to prepare a new batch. Kombucha
can be consumed right away, bottled and stored in
the fridge or you can second ferment it.
Warnings:
- Store in unopened package in cool dry place up to 12 months.
- After opening should be used right away.
- All fermented foods may contain trace amounts of alcohol and histamine. If preparing kefir for children, breastfeeding mothers or pregnant women please seek medical advice before consuming.
