Kombucha is a beverage from fermented sweet tea with a culture of yeast and bacteria. Can be made with white tea, black tea or green tea, in tea bags or loose tea. This is my first time making with matcha tea, way back, I was addicted to matcha with non dairy milk, glad i kept my bamboo whisk. I added step by step photos below the recipe.
