Pumpkin Spice Kombucha

There are an infinite number of ways to flavor kombucha. Here is a seasonal (autumn/winter) idea using pumpkin puree, as well as the classic “pumpkin spices”: cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, cloves, and ginger. The flavors balance well, especially the sweetness of the pumpkin against the tart kombucha base!

Prep time

10 mins

Fermentation time

2-4 days

Yield: 1 quart

Ingredients

24 oz/ ¾ liter ripe kombucha
¼ cup pureed pumpkin
⅛ tsp. allspice, ground
⅛ tsp clove, ground
⅛ tsp. cinnamon, ground
⅛ tsp. nutmeg, ground
1 inch fresh ginger, julienned into 5-6 matchsticks

Instructions

Using a funnel, add all ingredients except kombucha into a quart-sized bottle with a lid (either a swing top or one with a cap which can tighten.)
Top with kombucha, to ensure puree and spices are "washed" into the bottle.
Leave ½" space from the top of the bottle.
Remove funnel and tighten cap on bottle.
Wait 2-3 days, then move to refrigerator.
Serve cold or room temperature.
