Kombucha Scoby – to Start Your Own Kombucha Brew, DRINK THIS IN MODERATION – DO NOT DRINK EVERY DAY! —————————————————————————————————-Kombucha is an extra healthy tea that is high in vitamin B that is brewed with a colony of microorganisms. This recipe is to make the Symbiotic Colony Of Bacteria and Yeast aka SCOBY so you can start making your own Kombucha instead of shelling out $4 a bottle at the grocery store. From This was perfect! I had a scoby that I purchased from the bacteria pimp (online) but it always made kombucha that was very vinegary. This produced a much more pleasant ‘tea’. Thanks for posting! Kombucha is so healthy and good for you! Too many are afraid of it but it has some great health benefits.
