    My daughter-in-law, Jackie gifted me a scoby the other day. A scoby is what you'll need to make your own Kombucha. If you know someone who is brewing their own, they should be able to share a starter scoby with you. If not, you can purchase and make your own scoby.

    A scoby isn't the most attractive thing to look at, but it's extremely healthy and immune system boosting.



    WEIGHT WATCHERS POINTS: 5pts for 8oz



    MAKE A SCOBY STARTER TEA:
    1 bottle...………..Spring Water
    10.………………Black Teabags
    1 cup...………….Sugar

    • Cover jar lid with cheesecloth. 
    • Sit in a dark place for 7-14 days.
    • Remove from dark place and examine for scoby floating on the top.
    • Remove scoby to a pint jar adding two cups of the liquid.
    • This becomes the starter for your next batch.
