Ingredients

  • ½ gallon kombucha from a first fermentation this is not store bought kombucha, 1.9 L
  • 3 inches fresh ginger about 3 Tbsp grated
  • 4 Tbsp orange juice 60 mL
  • 4 whole cloves
  • Optional: ½ tsp whole peppercorns

Instructions 

  • Prep: Finely chop or grate the ginger, and gather the rest of your ingredients.
  • Bottle: Evenly distribute ginger, juice, and spices into fermentation bottles*. Pour in first fermentation kombucha, leaving 1 to 2 inches free at the top.
  • Ferment: Place in a dark, room temperature area for 3 to 10 days, until it reaches the carbonation level you like. This process will go faster in warmer climates, and slower in cooler climates.
  • Enjoy: Chill in the fridge before serving, optionally straining out the ginger fibers. Can be stored in the fridge, tightly sealed, for several weeks.
