Kombucha originates in China, where it was traditionally made by fermenting tea with sugar to create a naturally effervescent and refreshing beverage. Loving Foods Kombucha is naturally cultured using organic green tea and organic cane sugar, using a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) to drive the fermentation process. This technique is a time-honoured method of preparation, resulting in a drink packed full of vitamins, enzymes and probiotics, prized by cultures throughout the world, who value its ability to promote good health and wellbeing. Our Kombucha is fermented using organic cane sugar, a crucial nutrient for the growing bacteria to survive and multiply. During fermentation, the symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), consume the sugar and in the process, produce wonderful strains of beneficial bacteria, vitamins, minerals and enzymes. The final product only contains a small amount of the original sugar, as most of it is consumed by the bacteria and yeast. As another lovely side benefit, they also make the drink nice and fizzy. All of the water used in our drinks is double filtered using both active ceramic and granular activated carbon to remove impurities and for a great taste. Kombucha is a fantastic, tasty, clean alternative to commercially available fizzy drinks and also to alcoholic beverages.
