ABOUT THE EVENT
This would be an exclusive gathering of people who have the shared interests of knowing more about the modern elixir Kombucha, and love the indulgences of Chocolate. The morning would be a unique opportunity to learn, create, and savour delightful flavours.
KOMBUCHA MAKING
Kombucha is a fermented tea drink that is made by combining black or green tea with sugar, a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast), and water. The SCOBY is a living culture that helps to ferment the tea, which gives kombucha its characteristic sour taste and fizzy texture. Discover the art of crafting your own kombucha by blending different spices and herbs . You’ll create a personalised kombucha recipe that you can take home and enjoy at your leisure.
ABOUT THE EXPERT
Purvi and her husband Josh began Soma a few years back, after spending some time experimenting with homemade fermented foods, including kombucha, and Ayurvedic herbs. A dietary overhaul and forest bathing had slowly helped to reverse autoimmune health issues in her then 4 year old son. She wrote about this experience in an award-winning essay, which was selected for the Best American Science and Nature Writing 2018 anthology. A lawyer and biochemist, Purvi has degrees from Duke University and the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. Rohan is now a healthy and happy 13 year old, and his sister Kiran is 10.
