Favorite Kombucha

[NJCher]

14. so are you saying Rowdy Mermaid

is peach thyme?

Sounds good; if I can find a peach thyme flavor around here, I will try it. If that's not what you are saying, what flavor is Rowdy Mermaid?

My favorite is blueberry ginger with a lot of fizz. I drink it from a stemmed wine glass. I have at least a bottle a day. That's a $60 a month habit if I get it on sale, otherwise more like $75-80. I love it so much. I will admit I am totally addicted.

Therefore, today I am making my first batch of six bottles. I should have done this a long time ago, but damn, it takes a lot of stuff one doesn't have in the pantry to make it: a scoby, notably. Instead of getting a scoby, I got a Fermentaholics Organic Kombucha scoby With Twelve Ounces of Starter Tea" through Amazon. You don't really need ph strips but they are recommended. Ay yi yi. Who has all this stuff? Plus I had to get a Brita because we drank mostly sparkling Italian water, not tap water. Just those supplies alone were $43.

However, I dismiss it all by saying it's much healthier to drink than wine, and I currently consume -0- alcoholic beverages. Only kombucha and homemade ginger or chamomile tea for me. I feel great!
