Frequently asked

Questions,
answered.

Short, honest answers. If yours is not here, message us on WhatsApp and a human (the brewer, usually) replies.

What is kombucha, in one sentence?

Sweetened tea fermented with a mixed culture of bacteria and yeast, producing a tangy drink that Scoby Doo bottle-conditions for fizz.

Does kombucha contain alcohol?

Fermentation can produce alcohol. The amount depends on the batch and storage; do not assume kombucha is zero-alcohol. Ask us for current product information if you need to avoid alcohol.

How much sugar is in a bottle?

Cane sugar feeds the fermentation, and fruit can contribute sugars too. Some sugar remains in the finished drink. Check the current nutrition information for your flavour; neither tartness nor fermentation tells you the amount.

How much does Scoby Doo kombucha cost?

The MRP of a 275 ml bottle is ₹220. Mixed boxes of available flavours are welcome. Enquire on WhatsApp to confirm stock, delivery options, any charges and the final total before proceeding.

Can kids drink it?

Our kombucha is unpasteurised and can contain caffeine and alcohol. Do not assume it is suitable for children. Speak with a qualified healthcare professional before offering it to a child.

Is it safe during pregnancy?

Our kombucha is unpasteurised and can contain caffeine and alcohol. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, speak with a qualified healthcare professional before choosing it.

Is Scoby Doo kombucha vegan and gluten-free?

Our listed ingredients contain no animal-derived or gluten-containing ingredients. That is not a certification or assurance about allergen cross-contact. If you have coeliac disease or an allergy, ask us for product-specific information before choosing a bottle.

Why does my bottle have floaty bits?

You may see settled tea, yeast or fruit particles in an unfiltered bottle. Sediment alone does not prove a bottle is safe. Keep it chilled and upright; do not shake. If the bottle is damaged or you are unsure about its contents, do not drink it; contact us.

How should I store it, and how long does it keep?

Keep it refrigerated and upright. Cold slows fermentation; it does not stop it or make shelf life unlimited. Follow the storage instructions and best-before date on your bottle, including directions after opening. Do not shake, and open slowly away from your face. If it arrives warm or damaged, contact us before drinking it.

Is it pasteurised? Is it carbonated?

It is unpasteurised. Yes, it is carbonated: the fizz comes from fermentation in the sealed bottle, not injected CO₂. Bubble size alone cannot tell you how a drink was made.

How much should I drink in a day?

There is no universal daily amount. Check the nutrition information and remember that kombucha can contain caffeine and alcohol. If you have a health condition or are immunocompromised, speak with a qualified healthcare professional about whether unpasteurised kombucha is suitable for you.

Where do you deliver?

Amravati, Nagpur, Wardha and Akola are our listed delivery areas. Service to your address, chilled transport, timing and any charges need individual confirmation. For other areas, please enquire rather than assuming delivery is available.

How do I order?

Send a WhatsApp enquiry to +91 77698 98666 with the flavours, bottle quantities and your locality and PIN code. You can also call during our listed contact hours, 10 am to 8 pm. Confirm stock, delivery, the final total and payment arrangements before paying; sending a message does not place a confirmed order.

Why are some flavours "on hiatus"?

On hiatus means that flavour is not currently available. There is no promised return date; ask us for any updates. Seasonal flavours also need a stock check before you plan an order.

Still curious?

Ask us anything about the brew, the fridge or the delivery. Real person, real answers, usually within the hour.
