What is your latest and favourite kombucha tea?

[Guest guest]

I have just got another kombucha book by Courtenay courtesy of

ebay simply called kombucha tea with over 65 recipes.. this basically

keeps with the blueprint of 5-6 green tea bags for fast fermentation

but with an additional 4 tea bags (usually) of medicinal herbal

teas... I have used rose hip for a more fruity flavour and added 1

elderflower to see what happens as it is one of the ingredients

for " kombucha champagne " .. I would recommend the book highly I like

Harald Tietze but his making the brew more interesting could be more

in depth not to mention he states his measurements for combining green

and herbal teas in teaspoon measurements

Yes, Lee, I too do experiment with proper tea and herbal tea mixtures.

Recently I tried green tea and lemongrass and Earl Grey tea (black) in

more or less equl measures.

Despite the antibacterial lemon oil this tea has turned out really

wonderful and surprised me.

Another tea I have recently tried for Kombucha is Genmaicha, a green tea

with toasted rice grains. This has turned out to be utterly addicitve

to me ;-) YUM!!!

What may be irresistable to me, however, may be utterly repulsive to

someone else.

Yes, I have tried rosehip and various variations on elderflower and

elderberry, all very nice!

The room for eperimentation is a VERY LARGE room ;-)

Keep having fun and enjoy!

Good Morning

A book on Kombucha I didn't know existed. I have 11 Books and

thought that was all there was. I've used most major book search

engines and can not find any reference to this book and very few on

the author. What a find! I would very much like to get a copy. If you

happen to come across another copy please let me know. I gather from

you email address your located in the UK. One thing you didn't

mention in the blue print was the recommended amount of sugar. I

assume the blueprint is for a liter of sweet tea.

Hi Margret I bet you have had some interesting mixes with

kombucha I was meaning to ask you about paw paw leaves and using

this with kombucha.. in that book it is listed at the front out of

sequence because it is the authors favourite and apparently gives

you a " euphoric feeling of wellbeing " that sounds good to me! I have

just ordered 125g from sulishealth that is supposed to be a months

supply I dont know if I have any flowers to add though lol how much

of the leaf tea would you put into the brew? Could you mix herbs

with this and how? kombucha me )

Your right Bill it got sent to me all the way from Australia! from

ebay user park_grandma highly recommended for fast delivery etc. I

think there is a big kombucha network in oz and they have a good

website about the tea but anyway I didnt know there were 11 books on

kombucha lol I very much like Harald Tietze's book... apparently

this author in oz has also wrote a book called " kombucha vinegar and

honey "

For additional info you may need on this book the address on the

back is as follows..
