Using Arizonis Tea

[Guest guest]

Hello

I'm new to the group but not new to KT, been making it off and on for

twenty

years or so. I signed on to find the answer to a question I had and

that was could a person use Arizona tea as the starter tea for a batch

of KT. I just didn't have time to boil tea.

Well I couldn't find an answer so I dumped a gallon of tea I got at the

store (Arizona southern style sweet tea) in a jar and started a batch

of KT.

It seems to have worked good so far, I have a very healthy young scoby

on top and the mother has floated to the bottom. I need to give it

another few days then I'll know how good it is to drink.

Yes this cost a little more, little over $2 gallon but saved time and

the mess in the kitchen. And they claim this is an all natural tea.

I'm interested if anyone else has done the same thing or used the nice

gallon plastic bottles the Arizona Tea comes in for storing their KT

and if so how it worked.
