Ingredients

  • 1 Liter Kombucha
  • 1 cup Apple juice
  • 8 cloves
  • Sugar (optional)
  • Flip top bottle or any air tight bottle

Directions

  • Take one cup fresh or canned apple juice.
  • If taking fresh apple juice, add 1/2 tbsp sugar
  • To flavour 1 L kombucha, you need 1 cup apple juice.
  • Adjust the Kombucha and juice quantity to suit your requirement and taste.
  • During second fermentation, the sugars in the fruit will result to natural fizz.
  • Use air tight bottle that can withstand pressure.
  • Add the juice, 8 cloves and fill only 3/4th of the bottle with Kombucha.
  • Keep the bottles in room temperature, for around three days.
  • And every day, “burp” the bottles to remove the pressure (open and close the caps lets the CO2 out).
  • Taste test the flavoured brewing kombucha in 3 days.
  • The longer you leave it, the fizzier it will get until it suits your taste.
