One of my all time favourite Kombucha flavours for the second week-long fermentation is Hibiscus. I love the deep red colour it produces and the distinct tart flavour. Combine this beautiful, powerful flower with the amazing benefits of Kombucha and you have one super tasty and super potent beverage.
