تجربتي الشخصية.

Last year, as I was passing through Oaxaca, I had strolled into a small weekend market and a vendor was giving me a cloudy scented drink that smelled of citrus in a clay cup. It was the first Mexican kombucha that I had tasted and the different ingredients were domestic hibiscus (hibiscus jamica) and piloncillo sugar. I felt amazed by the fact that it was fresher than the bottled ones in my home. In a couple of days I felt that I was digesting better and more energetic in the afternoons. This mere experience began my interest in brewing kombucha in the Mexican style.

رأي الخبراء.

According to Dr. Jose Hernandez (gut specialist nutritionist), he says:
The Mexican kombucha is the one which has the same probiotic profile as the traditional kombucha and which can have greater amounts of antioxidants by the local fruits and herbs. As a daily supplement, one should take 100150 ml of the supplement as an aid to digestion, strengthen immunity and supply polyphenols to combat infections. Still, it should be administered in small portions particularly in the early stages, particularly among those of a weak digestion.
