Instructions
Bottle: Evenly distribute juice and rose buds into fermentation bottles. Pour in 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 flowers and fibers. Can be stored in the fridge, tightly sealed, for several weeks.
Notes
*Which tea is best? I used black tea kombucha, but green or hibiscus kombucha would also be great.
