About
Kombucha is a lightly sweetened, effervescent fermented tea. Originating from East Asia, kombucha is made by steeping tea leaves in water and adding sugar to make a sweetened tea. A symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) is added to the sweet tea and allowed to ferment. During this time, the SCOBY will feed on the sugar within the tea and release beneficial bacteria and acids into the tea. This process yields a probiotic beverage that is slightly tart, rich with B vitamins, and antioxidants. Although kombucha has been referred to as “The Drink of the Gods” because of its use to treat health conditions, we at Kommunity Kombucha prefer kombucha for its probiotic features and slightly sweetened flavor. We use high quality organic tea, flowers, and fruits in our recipes. Using organic fruits, flowers, and sugar for flavoring, we are able to produce a balanced tea that is sweet and flavorful without the use of any artificial flavors or aromas.
