frequently asked questions


Kombucha is a naturally fermented tea drink made by fermenting sweetened tea with a live culture known as a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast). During fermentation, the SCOBY transforms the tea into a refreshing, slightly tangy beverage that’s rich in organic acids, antioxidants, and naturally occurring probiotics.
At ME Kombucha, we brew our kombucha in small batches using high-quality teas, real ingredients, and slow fermentation to create a clean, balanced, and deliciously functional drink.
