Also here's some of the kimchi I made. Kimchi might be the best fermented food I've ever discovered.

Napa cabbage
Daikon raddish
Green onion
Garlic
Ginger
Fish Sauce
Oysters (with juice)
korean red pepper powder

That's it. Salt the cabbage for two hours, rinse several times, combine garlic/ginger/fish sauce/pepper powder into a paste, combine the rest and let sit for 5 days. Best shit ever.

Theoretically you can, but it's not fool-proof. Exposing sweet tea to the elements will invite the bacteria that converts it into kombucha. However, I've never had success that way. The one time I tried, it just straight up spoiled.

You can just buy a store-bought kombucha, save the sediment at the bottom and drop it into a jar of sweet tea. You'll have your own scoby in a matter of a week or two. I did that two years ago and never had to do it again because I just recycle the scoby over and over.
