- It’s loaded with probiotics to improve overall health, especially gut health and the immune system!
- Easy & fun
- Inexpensive! Pennies per serving
Rebecca will discuss the health benefits of kombucha, including what makes it so healthy, and then provide a step-by-step demonstration on how to make and bottle kombucha. There will be kombucha tasting of several different flavors as well as ample time for Q&A from the class.
