Pittsburgh Botanic Garden, Pittsburgh, PA
10:00 AM - 12:30 PM
Have you met the mother? Not your biological one–the one that makes kombucha! This hands-on and demo-based workshop does a deep dive into the world of bubbly, non-alcoholic/low-alcoholic beverages. Join Trevor Ring at Pittsburgh Botanic Gardens to learn how to brew kombucha at home with creativity and confidence! We will also examine how to turn flavorful ingredients into fun soda pop with tibicos (aka water kefir) and wild fermentation! Participants taste their way through the 2.5-hour workshop, participate in a hands-on soda-making activity, and walk away with a kombucha mother, tibicos culture, and jar of soda to ferment at home.
Program suitable for adults (18+) or ages 16+ if accompanied by an adult
