Make a refreshing and healthy Spiced Citrus Ginger Kombucha. This drink offers a bright flavor profile with a healthful boost, perfect for sipping anytime.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 gallon unflavored Kombucha
  • 1 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 cup grated fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • Optional: Ginger slices and citrus wheels for garnish

Instructions

  1. Combine the unflavored kombucha, orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, grated ginger, cinnamon, and cloves in a large, clean container.
  2. Stir the mixture well to fully incorporate all the spices and juices.
  3. Cover the container with a breathable cloth or coffee filter secured with a rubber band. This allows air exchange while keeping contaminants out.
  4. Let the mixture ferment at room temperature (around 70-75°F or 21-24°C) for 3 to 7 days. Taste daily to check for desired tartness and carbonation.
  5. Once the flavor is to your liking, strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the grated ginger pulp.
  6. Pour the finished kombucha into flip-top bottles, leaving about an inch of headspace.
  7. Seal the bottles tightly and let them sit at room temperature for an additional 1 to 3 days for secondary fermentation and carbonation. Be careful not to over-carbonate.
  8. Refrigerate the bottles to halt fermentation. Serve chilled, garnished with fresh citrus or ginger slices if desired.

Notes

  • Always use clean, sanitized equipment when brewing kombucha to prevent mold growth.
  • If you prefer a less spicy flavor, reduce the amount of fresh ginger used.
  • Burp your bottles daily during the secondary fermentation period to release excess pressure.
  • If you are new to kombucha brewing, start with a shorter secondary fermentation time.
