A Sip Through Time
Kombucha’s roots run deep—originating around 220 BCE in Northeast China, where it was prized as the “Tea of Immortality” for its supposed healing powers.
From there, it spread along ancient trade routes, landing in samurai camps in Japan and apothecaries across Eastern Europe.
By the 20th century, it was bubbling up in U.S. home kitchens, farmers markets, and California health food stores—riding the wave of wellness culture. Today, it’s a global phenomenon, sipped by anyone chasing that feel-good-from-the-inside-out kind of vibe.

Brewing the Magic
Every batch of kombucha starts with brewed tea, a bit of sugar, and the help of a SCOBY—our Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast.
During fermentation, the SCOBY transforms the sweet tea into a tangy, fizzy drink packed with probiotics, organic acids, and B-vitamins.
It’s a slow, living process that takes about 7–10 days, and it’s how we create that gut-friendly base with just the right kick of caffeine and tang.

Meet the SCOBY
He’s not a scientist. He’s not a chef. He’s just a laid-back legend with a surfboard casually brewing kombucha like it’s no big deal.
Our SCOBY—short for Symbiotic Culture Of Bacteria and Yeast—is the heart and soul of Beach Bum Bucha. He floats in sweet tea, kicks back, and somehow turns it into a fizzy, probiotic-packed party for your gut and your taste buds.
Sure, he looks like a jelly pancake on spring break, but he’s the one behind all the fermenting, fizzing, and flavor you love. A true vacation overachiever.
We keep him relaxed in small batches with real fruit and good vibes. Because when he’s thriving, your kombucha is too. So next time you crack a can, just know: this chill little legend had something to do with it.
