Licensed natural health practitioner Eva Sippl launched Eva's Herbucha in 2008 and now, over a decade later, is introducing Eva's Cultured Candy. These candies are not infused with kombucha but made with the symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) that plays an essential part in transforming sweet tea into tangy, probiotic-rich kombucha. As such, the candies have a chewy texture when they are dehydrated and crystalized in small batches, which creates a richness of flavor and even preserves some of the probiotics of the beneficial beverage.
The gut-nourishing candies are available in varieties like Zesty Lavender, Apple Pie and Orange Cream, which offer completely new flavor experiences for fans of Eva's Herbucha kombucha drinks.
