Did You Know That…
- Ancient Elixir: Kombucha isn’t a modern drink! It’s believed to have originated in China around 2,000 years ago during the Qin Dynasty, where it was called “The Tea of Immortality.”
- It’s Not a Mushroom: The strange, gelatinous “pancake” used to brew it is often mistakenly called a “tea mushroom” or “fungus.” It’s actually a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast)!
- The Magic is Fermentation: Kombucha is made by adding the SCOBY to a mixture of tea and sugar. The bacteria and yeast consume the sugar, producing those characteristic healthy acids, enzymes, and fizz!
- Potential Health Hero: Because of the fermentation process, Kombucha is rich in probiotics (live cultures), which are known to support gut health and aid in digestion.
Grab a bottle and give your gut some love!
