What is kombucha?

Kombucha is a functional beverage! It’s made by fermenting tea. Our kombucha contains green, black and sometimes herbal tea to which we add sugar and kombucha culture. The sugar is converted by the yeast during the fermentation process. After initial fermentation, our kombucha is flavored with fruits, vegetables, and beneficial herbs. The end product is a refreshing, tangy, effervescent beverage. Kombucha contains natural probiotics, B vitamins, organic acids, antioxidants, to support gut health and overall wellbeing.
