Can I use fruit juice to make Kombucha Tea?
Some people add clear fruit juices when making Kombucha Tea (cranberry, apple etc.). However, it is generally not recommended. If you do use fruit juice you should boil the juice along with your water before adding it to the fermenting container. Most people recommend that if you want to add juice it’s best if you add it after the fermentation cycle is complete, and after the colony and ferment–which are to be used in the next batch– have been safely removed to prevent any contamination of your colony.
