Eat By Design
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Special equipment: 1 large glass jar with a lid
Ingredients
- 1 Kombucha SCOBY
- 8 black or green tea bags
- 1 cup of organic granulated white sugar
- 16 cups of water
- 1 cup of kombucha
Steps
- Boil 16 cups of water in a large pot on the stove.
- Once the water boils, add all 8 tea bags and allow them to steep for 30 minutes. Remove the tea bags.
- Add your sugar and stir to combine.
- Cover the pot and leave to cool (I leave mine overnight.)
- Once the tea has cooled, pour it into your large glass jar.
- Place the SCOBY into the jar.
- If you have already have kombucha at home, also pour 1 cup of kombucha into the jar. If this is your first batch, you can omit this step.
- Leave the lid off of the jar but cover with a clean dishcloth and secure with a rubber band. This step is to keep the critters out of your kombucha.
- Leave the kombucha to ferment for 7-14 days.
