My husband bought a bottle once and I thought it was spoiled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180362 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 19:35:44 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1180362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FarmWifeGina: my mom has a ginger one that is similar to a ginger ale and I like that one. But my favorite is blueberry! She adds the blueberry juice from trader joes that is fully fruit and nothing added.</p> <p>Apple is great too- we used freshly home juiced apple juice too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180284 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 19:01:06 +0000 honeybear 1180284@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a mother in my fridge. :) I think I'd lay off of it (even the store-bought stuff) while pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180201 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:25:08 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1180201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was addicted to this stuff for awhile! I stopped drinking it when I got pregnant with J. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180200 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:24:33 +0000 FarmWifeGina 1180200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: What are your favorite flavorings and how do you process them? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180197 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:22:56 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1180197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: yeah, it is a fermented drink, that's why it tastes so. But it is safe :)</p> <p>@anonysquire: yup, you need that "mother scoby" to ferment the tea.</p> <p>@FarmWifeGina: my momma makes it too! so good. </p> <p>@QueensBee: I told my mom that she will have to keep making it for me because the scoby is so gross looking I'll never be able to drink it if I constantly see how it's made hahaha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180179 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:17:32 +0000 anonysquire 1180179@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@QueensBee: Sorry lol!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180168 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:15:09 +0000 Andrea 1180168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went through a phase where I had it a bunch because I walked past WF daily. Now I will drink a bottle every once in awhile when I am in the mood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180164 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:14:07 +0000 QueensBee 1180164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: I love kombucha and drank it 1x/week while pregnant and breastfeeding. I'd love to have it more often but it's expensive and I'm not brave enough to try to make my own! I try to add a teaspoon of raw apple cider vinegar to my morning water bottle to get some of the same health benefits though.</p> <p>@anonysquire: Yuck, that photo was a bit of a kombucha turn off! I am going to pretend I never saw it lol! :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180162 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:13:59 +0000 FarmWifeGina 1180162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ME, ME, MEEEEE! Lol, I may be just a little overenthusiastic about my love for the 'booch. I brew my own in a continuous brew system and I keep meaning to experiment with secondary brewing and different flavors, but it's so good straight (although, this is DEFINITELY an acquired taste, most people think it tastes like vinegar- it tastes pretty close to GT's raw, original flavor), that we end up drinking it all straight off the tap.<br /> ETA: And yes, I totally drink it while pregnant.<br /> ETA2: I consider my SCOBYs (the "mother" on top) to be my pets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180160 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:13:41 +0000 dc yoga bee 1180160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: I tried it at a yoga party and it totally didn't look like that.

I just googled to make sure. Maybe this is just the one when you try and make it yourself? </p> [attach=1857/13/mveiyc.500x375.kombucha2.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180134 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:04:25 +0000 chopsuey 1180134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: don't think so..!<br /> @Mrs. Pen: ooh good to know, thanks! picked some up and it tastes alcohol-y so was curious! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180126 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:02:31 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1180126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes! My mom makes her own at home and she gives it to us - it's SO good and SO SO good for you. We flavor it tons of different ways to make it even yummier :)</p> <p>And yes, I did drink it while pregnant. But not in huge amounts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180118 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:00:59 +0000 anonysquire 1180118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is this the stuff with the floating mold disk in it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/any-kombucha-drinkers#post-1180116 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:00:36 +0000 chopsuey 1180116@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did/do you drink it while pregnant or nursing? </p>
