Are you living or planing to visit Indonesia and looking for the best Kombucha in Bali? We have done the research for you!

Fermented food has soared in popularity in recent years, partially due to the ever-increasing interest and research into gut health. Kombucha, a mildly fizzy, slightly sour drink, is popular with health-conscious consumers (here’s looking at you, yogis!). More and more mindful consumers want alternatives to processed, sugar-filled fizzy drinks and kombucha’s unique and natural flavors makes it the perfect substitute.

Kombucha is fermented from sweetened tea and a specific culture known as a scoby. Scoby stands for ‘symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeasts’. The bacteria and yeasts convert sugar into ethanol and acetic acid, which gives kombucha its distinctive sour taste.

Fermented foods and drinks like yogurts, sauerkraut, kefir, and kombucha all contain live microorganisms and produce probiotic bacteria, which can help to balance our gut, aid digestion and reduce inflammation. Kombucha is rich in antioxidants and small amounts of vitamins and minerals produced when the yeast breaks down the sugars, including vitamin C and B vitamins B1, B6 and B12.

Kombucha is classified as a functional food because of its health benefits, but it is not advised for pregnant or breastfeeding women or those with a compromised immune system. Sometimes drinking too much kombucha can lead to side effects such as stomach aches, nausea, and dizziness. Prolonged fermentation is not recommended because of the accumulation of acids, which could reach harmful levels.*

Kombucha is usually made using sugar, cold filtered water, black/green tea (bags or loose leaf), and a scoby (purchased online, or from an existing batch of kombucha). To make kombucha, the tea and sugar are steeped in boiled water and left to cool. The scoby is added, the mixture is covered then left to ferment for up to a week in a cool environment. The longer the kombucha ferments, the fizzier and stronger it becomes. During fermentation spices or fruit can be added for delicious flavor profiles.

As it is fermented, strict guidelines must be met in order to ensure that kombucha is safe for consumption – if made incorrectly it has the potential to make you ill. We advise buying kombucha from a reputable source rather than making it at home.
