About Raw Organic Kombucha

A representative one-cup serving of raw organic kombucha provides approximately 29 calories and 7 grams of carbohydrate, with no meaningful protein, fat, or fiber. These values are based on a representative USDA branded raw-kombucha entry rather than a universal formula.

Kombucha is produced by fermenting sweetened tea with a mixed culture of bacteria and yeast. Fermentation reduces some of the original sugar and creates organic acids, carbonation, flavor compounds, and variable amounts of live microorganisms, caffeine, and trace alcohol.

Nutrition differs substantially by brand, flavor, fermentation time, and bottle size. This entry represents a relatively low-sugar plain product; fruit juice, added cane sugar, honey, or a larger bottle can raise total carbohydrate and calories considerably.

Expert Tip

Read both the serving size and total-bottle label because residual sugar varies widely among kombucha brands. Keep raw products refrigerated as directed, avoid bottles that are swollen or leaking, and remember that fermentation may leave trace alcohol and caffeine.
