KeVita™ is made with our proprietary, certified organic, kefir-derived culture.  Our KeVita™ culture is a nutrient-rich blend of probiotics and prebiotics, organic acids, polysaccharides, and trace elements. This culture is different (and is created by a different methodology) than the culture used in kombucha. Traditionally kombucha is made using a black tea base while KeVita™ uses either water, tea or coconut water as the base.  Both KeVita™ and kombucha are made with SCOBY's: Symbiotic Cultures of Bacteria and Yeast, but the SCOBY's differ vastly. The base of KeVita™ culture is pure water while the kombucha culture is grown in a sweetened tea. KeVita™ is richer in probiotics than kombucha.
