What are peoples thoughts on Kombucha...i recently started drinking it as an alternative to soy/greek yogurt bc of the probiotics in it...but i don't know if its worth the extra cost my faves are GT's trilogy, and gingerberry

    I brewed it at home for a while but it never tasted as good as the stuff I got at the store. I read it was supposed to have a ton of health benifits but I never noticed a difference. Look up how to do it at home on youtube. I went to my local health food store and got a mother, other then that all you need is sugar, tea and a large jar.

    My sister drinks it daily and swears by it but I've only had it a couple of times and didn't notice any difference. I love Greek yogurt, so I'll probably just stick with it.

    i love it. My fav is the Gingerade. I am vegan so I cut out yogurt a few years ago. Its a good replacement. Also less calories if you are looking into that as well. It is expensive but eating healthy now outweighs the price of high doctor bills later.

    I want to start making my own. My best friend keeps telling me how (he's been doing it for years) and I still haven't started. Last time he visited he even got me the huge glass container w/ lid to make it in. I guess I'm scared of doing it wrong

    I found a scooby and instructions on craiglist. But going on this thread motivated me to actually start doing it. I get to go pick it up on Friday and will start brewing my own tea this weekend!!!

    Can't wait :flowerforyou:
