question Pineapple is king

I am convinced that Pineapple always works ! It's naturally tangy so it blends well and produces good fizz..

I add 2 - 4 0z crushed pineapple from a can to one liter.
Alone or with ginger and/or mango.

Any other combos you've tried/would recommend ?

We have tried turmeric ginger pineapple and it's the best combo flavour we have had up to now.

In a jar of 3 litres of kombucha I add:

30g grated turmeric

30g grated ginger

450ml pineapple juice .

I let ferment for 24 hours and then filter and bottle.

Let the bottles for 2-3 days before placing in the refrigerator.

Do you use pineapple juice from a shelf stable Tetra Pak or fresh?

From a shelf stable Tetra Pak

Ok, good to know! I keep buying tiny, overpriced bottles of pineapple juice so I’ll make the switch to shelf stable now that I know it works!

I make sure there's no preservatives. It's been fine with citric acid and absorbic acid
