Kombucha Class Highlight: Elderberry!

Elderberry is known for being rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals which strengthens our immune systems. Infusing kombucha with elderberry during the second ferment creates a beverage with medicinal benefits that tastes delicious and enhances our health.
