Ingredients

  • ½ gallon green tea kombucha* from a first fermentation this is not store bought kombucha, 1.9 L
  • ½ cup packed cherries fresh or frozen and thawed
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • Optional: ¼ tsp almond extract or amaretto liqueur

Instructions 

  • Puree: Blend cherries into a thick paste, adding a splash of kombucha as needed to get things moving.
  • Bottle: Evenly distribute cherry puree, vanilla extract, and optional almond extract 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 fruit fibers. Optionally serve with a splash of amaretto.

Notes

  • *I used green tea kombucha, though you can use black or even hibiscus tea with this recipe.
  • Can be stored in the fridge, tightly sealed, for several weeks.
