These days, you can find kombucha in just about every flavor imaginable. Brewing my own kombucha allows me to experiment with different tea combinations and kombucha flavorings. If you missed my last post on what kombucha is and the benefits it provides to your body - you can read about it below.

I mainly use Choice organic teas and pick between their white, black and green teas. Classic Green, Russian Caravan, Earl Grey and White Peony are among some of my favorites. I mix and match depending on my mood.
Summer is a great time to experiment with different fruits and herbs from the garden. Strawberries and basil definitely makes the list of my top 3 kombucha flavors! It goes great with a tea mix of Earl Grey and Classic Green. Blackberries and sage is another winner on my list. I used a White Peony and Earl grey tea concoction for that one.
One of my favorite teas to use in making the brew is mango flavored. I found the mango tea leaves at Whole Foods and was so happy I did. I'm not an avid coffee drinker but I do enjoy an occasional cup so when I decided to to add some dark roast coffee beans to my mango tea brew - I was shocked it tasted so coffeelicious! My husband is not a coffee person, at all, so I guess I'm lucky I get to enjoy this variety all to myself! Give this flavor a try if you like coffee!
For my next batch of kombucha I'm going to add peaches and basil to my mango flavored tea. It sounds oddly delicious so I can't wait to try it! What are your favorite kombucha flavors?
