Store bought or fresh brewed?

Hello, and thanks for your interest! I've gotten to enjoy this process over the past year and am excited to share with you all the reasons why you should try fresh brewed kombucha over store bought, whether you get it from a farmer market, brewery, make it yourself or get it from me.


Fresh or home brewed kombucha contains the maximum amount of beneficial probiotics that can improve gut health, mental health, and infection risk. Some brands will actually pasteurize their kombucha to support a longer shelf life, and reducing the beneficial bacteria. Gt's Kombucha is the most trusted brand in this regard.


Fresh brewed kombucha is often richer in flavor than store bought alternatives. The more precise fermentation stopping point of fresh brewed kombucha allows to retain some of the natural sweetness of the flavorings which is usually gone by the time store brands get to their shelves.


Brewing at home is more affordable than store bought alternatives. By brewing, flavoring and bottling yourself you bypass paying someone else for each process, so having a constant supply becomes much more sustainable.


Brewing your own kombucha is a fun and rewarding experience. It’s easy to get started and only takes as much effort as it does to make a pot of tea. Plus, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing that you’re drinking a high-quality beverage that you made yourself.


Another way of acquiring fresh kombucha may be at the local farmers markets, or a kombucha specific brewery. They may have flights off multiple flavors you can choose which allow you to really identify a flavor you enjoy before you buy a larger amount. Ninja Kombucha is one such great location in Richmond.


Still, there are many reasons why we should go the do it yourself route. From its health benefits to its superior flavor and affordability, fresh brewed kombucha is a great choice for anyone looking to improve their health and well-being.
