Ingredients
- ½ gallon kombucha from a first fermentation this is not store bought kombucha, 1.9 L
- 1 apple finely diced, can sub ¼ cup apple juice or cider
- 2 cinnamon sticks or ½ tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Bottle: Transfer kombucha into fermentation bottles*, leaving about 3 inches empty at the top.
- Add Flavors: Evenly divide apples and cinnamon into each bottle (I used 2 quart-sized bottles). Seal tightly.
- 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: Strain the kombucha to remove fruit pieces (optional), then chill in the fridge before serving. Can be stored in the fridge, tightly sealed, for several weeks.

Notes
*If this is your first time brewing, it may be helpful to use a plastic water bottle as a gauge. Fill a disposable plastic bottle with kombucha (leaving 2 inches empty at the top). When this bottle becomes rock hard, you’ll know the glass bottle are also ready. This will help you gauge how quickly kombucha brews in your climate and will prevent bottle explosions.
You can make this a pure apple kombucha by omitting the cinnamon. Or go the other direction and add even more fall spices, like a few whole cloves, some nutmeg, or ground ginger!
