What is Kombucha?

Kombucha, a fermented tea beverage, has gained popularity in recent years due to its potential health benefits. It is made by adding a culture of bacteria and yeast, known as a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast), to sweetened tea. Over a period of time, the SCOBY ferments the tea, resulting in a tangy and slightly effervescent drink. Kombucha has been consumed for centuries in various cultures for its supposed healing properties.
