inside of kombucha jell

Ever tried this trendy tea? If not, try it! It has a taste which is described differently by many people!

As most know, kombucha is a fermented tea consisting of bacteria, sugar, and (of course) tea. The tea is in a stage where it is beginning to form into alcohol but isn't completed which is why the tea is carbonated-like and also has a vinegar taste.

So up close, I took a look at a pack of bacteria (or I thought they were bacteria) which formed at the top of the tea and what I first noticed was how active they were! I soon realized they weren't bacteria but actually yeasts (which contribute in creating wine and alcohol). They were moving quite quickly and some were reproducing through what seemed to be binary fission because they would split like cells do in mitosis.

Also remember that kombucha is also famous because it has probiotics! Remember that probiotics can help fight colds and have a healthy intestine!
