What You Need

8 cups filtered water
2 tablespoons loose-leaf green tea
1 cup raw honey
1 jun SCOBY with 1-2 cups starter liquid
Step 1

Bring 8 cups filtered water to 175°F (do not boil: green tea turns bitter above 185°F).

Step 2

Once cooled, stir in 1 cup raw honey until fully dissolved. Adding honey to hot liquid destroys its enzymes and defeats the purpose of using it.

The Result

Jun tea uses raw honey and green tea instead of sugar and black tea for a silkier, more floral ferment than kombucha. Full brewing guide included.
