Strawberry Basil Kombucha
Author: 
Serves: makes three 34 ounce bottles
 
Ingredients
  • 1¼ cup strawberries, halved
  • 1½ oz basil, chopped
  • ⅓ cup sugar
  • ⅓ cup water
  • 15 cups (~3½ liters) home brewed kombucha from The Kombucha Shop Kit
  • 3 34-ounce swing top bottles (or equivalent)
Instructions
  1. In a small saucepan, combine strawberries, basil, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook until strawberries have broken down, about 6-7 minutes.
  2. Transfer strawberry mixture to food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Let cool completely.
  3. Pour ⅓ of the puree into a large glass pitcher. Add about 5 cups of kombucha and stir with a plastic or wooden spoon. Using a plastic funnel, pour liquid into a 34 ounce swing top bottle (alternatively, you can use mason jars or other tightly sealed jars). Repeat with remaining two bottles.
  4. Store bottles in a dark and cool place for 2-4 days, then transfer to fridge. Strain strawberry pulp before serving.
