Kombucha Revolution

A recipe-forward guide to kombucha from Stephen Lee, co-founder of Tazo Tea, Stash Tea, and Kombucha Wonder Drink. If you already know the basics of brewing and want creative ideas for what to do with your kombucha, this book delivers.

Why Consider This One

Where The Big Book of Kombucha excels at teaching you the science and process of brewing, Kombucha Revolution is built around what comes next: turning your basic brew into something special. Lee shares 75 recipes that go well beyond simple fruit infusions. You will find kombucha cocktails, smoothies, sauces, desserts, and even main course recipes that use kombucha as an ingredient.

Lee’s background in the tea industry gives the book a perspective that most homebrew guides lack. He understands flavor pairing at a professional level, and the recipes reflect that. The contributions from guest brewers, bartenders, and chefs add variety and credibility.

The book also covers the fundamentals of brewing and SCOBY care, but in less depth than the recommended starting point. If you are a complete beginner, start with The Big Book of Kombucha and come back to this one when you are ready to experiment.

What to Expect

A compact, visually appealing book at 160 pages. The focus is on creative applications rather than deep instruction. Best suited as a second book for brewers who have mastered the basics and want to expand their repertoire.
