I have always maintained an interest in Kombucha Tea, and for one reason or another, have gotten away from brewing the tea. With no scoby readily available, I am seeking advice to start a new batch.
I happened to see commercially produced Kombucha tea available in the refrigerated section of our local WalMart. I was interested to see this, and wondered if I could simply pitch a bottle of this tea in a batch of sweetened tea as I had always done with a baby scoby to start a new batch?
Since the product is refrigerated with a somewhat short exp date, I assume this tea will have active bacteria that will reproduce into a new scoby. Will this work and any tips?
Thanks!
