It's tasty and the bitter stuff sorta satisfies the desire to drink alcohol.

There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes

Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice π.

Right? I ansolutely also do find it satisfies the itch that "wants/needs" a drink
Bitter? Most of them are heavily fruit-flavored.
Very sour, low pH
Sour, yes. But not bitter.
My bad Chef Ramsey
I love it. Give me that funk baby. I want all those fermented foods that give me a healthy gut microbiome. Kombucha, Kimchi, sauerkraut, yogurt, and some kefir every now and again.
I don't know if the different fermented foods end up fighting in my gut or they live as peaceful neighbors, but the more I eat the more I want.
Beer is the most carbonated drink that I will enjoy, kombucha is just a bit too bubbly for my taste. But it kind of has a similar feeling to drink without getting drunk.
I love it. I should get back into making it myself again. A perfect special beverage just don't drink too much
Or else
You're gut will hate you. Will be too pro-biotic
I love it.
The local co-op by me has a bunch of them on tap! The pineapple one is my favorite
Not a fan, but I get why other people sometimes like it.
What do you think about kefir?
great for making pancakes
Fr? Thas a new usevase
Not really? Instead of mixing regular yoghurt with water, just use drinkable yoghurt. Easy substitution.
I like it. It produces the phenomenon of "bucha butt"
Dafuqs that?
The gas production as a result of drinking kombucha
Ngl never experienced that highkey
I don't think that's common.
Oh it doesn't happen every time or anything. It's more just what my wife and I call any fart the day after drinking kombucha.
I personally donβt like it that much. If I want probiotics, Iβd rather ingest an alternative that isnβt gassy.
More 4 me!
never had it but sounds cool.
I like the idea of it, but most commercial brands upset my stomach.
I think it's gross. It's like alcohol without the fun.
I feel like alcohol is the alcohol without the fun
