Notes
Instead of plain kombucha, use flavored kombucha. Ginger, mint, lime, pink lady apple, or pomegranate kombucha will fit well in this recipe. Some kombucha has added sugars like cane sugar. Read the ingredients if you need a low-sugar kombucha.
Add 1/4 cup of cranberry juice or orange juice for an even tastier punch. Either substitute one of these juices or add it in addition to the juice called for in the recipe.
