Kombucha is a fermented tea beverage, typically made using black or green tea. The fermentation process involves a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), resulting in a lightly carbonated drink with a slight alcohol content of 0.5%. Known for its probiotic properties, kombucha offers various health benefits, such as promoting gut health, aiding digestion, and potentially reducing the risk of heart disease. Increasing consumer awareness of these benefits is expected to drive market growth.
