Kombucha and Jun: Fermenting Your Own Healthy Sodas

June 17, 2016 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

$40
Kombucha and Jun are both cultures of bacteria and yeast that convert sugared tea into delicious, fizzy, probiotic-rich sodas! We will be learning about the basics of fermenting with both in this class, but focusing on Jun. While kombucha generally feeds off of black tea and cane sugar, Jun likes green tea and honey. Therefore, it can make use of the benefits of local, raw honey. It also has a unique taste, often being a little more delicate and more fizzy than most kombucha.
In this intensive workshop, we will go through the process of making Jun, from brewing the tea to flavoring the finished product. Participants will be able to mix various wild fruits and herbs to create their own unique flavor in a bottle of already-fermented tea, which can be taken home to be carbonated. Jun mothers will also be provided for everyone to start their own production at home!

**This workshop is limited to 8 participants.

Date: June 17, 6pm- 9pm        Cost: $40

Location: The Johnston Square Brick Barn, Baltimore 21202       Instructor: Ellen Paul

**Notice of cancellation must be given 48-hrs in advance of any of our workshops or events in order to request a refund. Cancellations are subject to a $5 restocking fee. **
