Cascara Kombucha Recipe

We have been playing with our Kombucha with Cascara recipe for a few months, and now we are ready to share. The rise and rise of Kombucha and other fermented drinks have become quite a phenomenon. There are many approaches to making this drink, and ours may not be the definitive way, but we love the results.

Getting your starter SCOBY can be a challenge. We started our first tests after being gifted a SCOBY. Unfortunately, while we were doing our second ferment, someone (no names here) decided that the strange thing in the fridge had to be thrown away. After researching starting our own SCOBY and finding a number of the on-market Kombucha have no live cultures, we bought one from Faithful to nature. You also can purchase one here… (no referral fees are charged)

So, the recipe we have below uses this SCOBY, and after the first ferment, saves it in an old bag for next time.

When we were in Colombia, we bought a bag on Panela. Panela is an unrefined brown sugar. We will have to use something from now on unless we can find some more. So instead of unrefined brown sugar, we used Panela. You need sugar to create Carbon Dioxide. The SCOBY feeds off the sugar. We have seen honey recipes but have not tried using that yet. By the end of the second ferment, your sugar levels should be insignificant. If you want your Kombucha sweeter, you may need to add more.

Some people make a second tea for their second ferment. And we were sent an example of one. For personal tastes, I found I preferred our method. But in case you are interested, the first tea was either a Rooibos or a Ceylon, and the second was the Cascara tea.

Our ingredients to make just less than 5 litres of Kombucha (depends on how much tea is with the starter Scoby/ Scoby mother:

Cascara Simple Syrup — The Little Black Coffee Cup

Allow to sit for approximately 3 – 5 days. The mixture should be kept in a dark cupboard, and the temperature should not be too cold or too hot. Taste test with a wooden spoon after three days have passed. When slightly naturally carbonated but not vinegary, this stage is finished

Once the mixture has lost most of its sweetness, it shows some carbonation; if this is not the case, then either the Scoby mother had an issue or (more likely) the temperature was too hot or too cold.

For the first fermentation, I made the Kombucha, usually without any Cascara, and then added the Cascara for the second fermentation. I tried 10 g and 15 g cascara per 750 ml kombucha; I think the 10 g worked well. It has a subtle cascara taste; the 15 g version was slightly bitter.The dried fruit of the coffee plant was first dubbed “cascara” by Aida Batlle around 2005, bringing it into the realm of Speciality Coffee. Cascara is best used as a tea-like drink; it is packed with polyphenols, antioxidants and potassium, making it not only a fruity delicious beverage but also a coffee alternative low in caffeine and full of health benefits.

As a coffee producer I have always been cutting edge and innovative in coffee processing and fermentation, creating some of the most sought out coffees in the world.

Back in 2005, I discovered that when we dried the fruit part of the coffee cherry and then steeped as a tea, it created an amazing beverage. So I decided to call it Cascara. Which in Spanish means “the outer peel/skin of a fruit.”

When I learned about Kombucha and all of its health benefits, I took the initiative to make one that I would actually drink and enjoy. The ones I had tasted before were too vinegary and masked with artificial flavors and sweeteners. Like in coffee, I decided to experiment and try to find a fermentation processes that would let it shine.
