I bottled 20 litres of kombucha yesterday with ginger and lemongrass. It'll be very fizzy and ready to drink in 3-5 days. Costs next to nothing and quite healthy - water, black tea, sugar, (gifted and self-reproducing) scoby. The flavourings are what costs most, depending on what you use.

Oooh that sounds good! I’ve been meaning to add fermented stuff to my diet.

  • Maybe try water kefir first then. I've got mine for 5 years now at least, making 2 bottles every couple of weeks or so.

    Kefir is easier and quicker to make than kombucha, there is no caffeine and maybe less sugar. Probably the best intro to fermented drinks!
