The Best Homemade Kombucha Recipe

Name: The Best Homemade Kombucha Recipe
Ingredients: Black or Green Tea Bags (4–6): High-quality tea is vital for a robust flavor. Black tea is traditional, but green tea works for a lighter taste. Avoid flavored teas with oils, as they can harm the SCOBY.; Granulated Sugar (1 cup): This is the fuel for fermentation. White cane sugar is ideal—don’t substitute with honey or artificial sweeteners; they won’t work the same.; Filtered Water (1 gallon): Tap water often contains chlorine, which can kill the SCOBY. Use filtered or boiled (and cooled) water for the best results.; SCOBY (1): The Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast is the core of kombucha. You can grow your own or get one from a friend or reputable source.; Starter Tea (1–2 cups): This is kombucha from a previous batch or store-bought raw, unflavored kombucha. It provides the acidity needed to initiate fermentation.

Instructions

Use a wooden or plastic spoon—metal can react with the acidic kombucha.
If mold appears (fuzzy spots), discard the batch and start fresh.
Reserve 1-2 cups of finished kombucha as starter liquid for your next brew.
Avoid direct sunlight—it can weaken the SCOBY.
Don’t tighten bottle lids too much during carbonation—pressure buildup can cause explosions.
