Notes
- My pickiest eater loved Kombucha so much we did second ferments using whole fruit or puree/ juices. The flavors are endless.
- We used mandarin oranges added to the kombucha and refrigerated for 2 days.
- Next up dried Ningxia wolfberries added to another bottle of booch and refrigerated for 2 days.
- Our favorite was adding grape juice to our booch and again refrigerate for 2 days and try the brews!
- Do NOT substitute Honey for the sugar in the recipe!
- Make sure your water is free of chlorine and other harmful chemicals.
Never miss a recipe!
