At Tea Gardens Kombucha, we believe that the quality of our kombucha drink begins with the ingredients we use. Each bottle of our refreshing, probiotic-rich kombucha is crafted with care, using only the best ingredients sourced from trusted farms and producers. From the tea leaves to the flavourings, every step of our ingredient selection is designed to ensure that our kombucha is not only delicious but also packed with health benefits. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how we source the best ingredients for Tea Gardens Kombucha.
1. Sourcing High-Quality Organic Teas
At the heart of every great kombucha brew is tea, and at Tea Gardens, we are committed to using only the finest organic tea leaves. We source our tea from reputable organic farms, ensuring that the tea is free from pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, and harmful chemicals. Organic farming practices not only protect the environment but also result in higher-quality tea leaves that retain their natural flavours and nutrients.
We carefully select our Organic green tea depending on the flavour profile we want to achieve. Each variety contributes its unique characteristics to the brew, and we prefer the light, refreshing taste of green tea. By using organic Green tea, we ensure that our no sugar kombucha has a clean, pure base that allows the natural fermentation process to shine.
2. Using Natural Sweeteners for Fermentation
Kombucha is fermented with the help of a SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast), which requires a natural sweetener to fuel the fermentation process. At Tea Gardens Kombucha, we use only natural, high-quality sweeteners like organic cane sugar to initiate this process. Unlike processed sugars, organic cane sugar provides a cleaner, healthier environment for fermentation, ensuring the proper growth of beneficial bacteria and yeast.
While sugar is necessary for fermentation, all of it is consumed by the SCOBY during the process, leaving behind a zero-sugar, probiotic & prebiotic-rich drink that’s both healthy and delicious.
3. Fresh, Natural Flavourings
After the fermentation process is complete, we flavour our kombucha with the finest natural ingredients approved by Australian Certified Organic. Whether it’s the tangy zest of ginger or the vibrant taste of berries, we use only natural flavourings to create our unique blends.
Our commitment to natural flavourings not only enhances the taste but also ensures that our kombucha retains the health benefits associated with these ingredients.
4. Sustainable and Ethical Sourcing Practices
In addition to selecting high-quality ingredients, we are committed to ethical and sustainable sourcing. We work closely with suppliers who share our values of sustainability and environmental responsibility. This means that our ingredients are not only good for you but also for the planet.
By supporting organic farming and sustainable practices, Tea Gardens Kombucha helps reduce our carbon footprint and contribute to a healthier ecosystem. Our commitment to sustainability extends from the farms we work with to the bottles we use, ensuring that we deliver a product that is as eco-friendly as it is delicious.
At Tea Gardens Kombucha, every bottle is a testament to our dedication to quality, health, and sustainability. From the organic tea leaves to the natural flavourings, we carefully select the best ingredients to create a kombucha that is both refreshing and nourishing. Our farm-to-bottle approach ensures that each sip of Tea Gardens Kombucha is packed with the flavours and benefits of nature’s finest ingredients. Whether you’re enjoying our kombucha for its health benefits or its delicious taste, you can feel confident that you’re drinking a product crafted with care from farm to bottle.
