Kombucha, a fermented tea drink, is experiencing a resurgence in popularity. The beverage has roots in Eastern European traditions, particularly from the Soviet era, where it was a common household staple. Historically, kombucha was produced in large, three-liter jars, often utilizing black tea and sugar as key ingredients. The fermentation process, carried out by a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast – commonly referred to as a SCOBY – results in a slightly effervescent, tangy drink. The drink’s production involves an oyster-like cellulose film forming on the surface of the liquid, which is part of the fermentation process. Modern commercial kombucha brands utilize similar methods, though often with more controlled environments and varied flavorings.
