Activated Kombucha
Activate (verb): Grow, sprout, become greater, make something active (living) or operative (functional)
If you’ve found MOJO living in the fridge recently, you may have noticed that something looks a little different about your favourite ‘booch. Don’t worry - it’s still the exact same delicious, low sugar, organic kombucha on the inside. However, we have made some changes to the outside, with a brand new word: Activated!
We wanted to share with you how Activated captures the magic that goes into every bottle of MOJO...
Authentic fermentation = activation
Our kombucha is authentically fermented with a unique
SCOBY (Symbiotic Culture of Bacteria and Yeast)
that’s been nurtured over ten years of continuous brewing. Following a
traditional kombucha recipe, our brew begins as a blend of organic raw cane
sugar and organic tea which through fermentation, becomes something
greater. Sugar is crucial as it is what activates and
fuels fermentation. During the fermentation process, the SCOBY metabolises
the sugar, transforming it into organic acids and live cultures. The result
is the naturally low sugar, living and functional drink
that is MOJO kombucha
– magic!
1 billion colony forming units of Bacillus coagulans GBI-30

In addition to the naturally occurring live cultures, every bottle of MOJO
Kombucha is also activated with 1 billion colony forming units of the
probiotic strain, Bacillus coagulans GBI-30 6086.
Active kombucha, living in the fridge
Even after bottling, MOJO continues to be an active
kombucha, which is why it must live in the fridge! Authentic kombucha
brewing balances residual sugar with the tangy acidic notes created during
fermentation. The small amount of residual sugar in Activated Kombucha allows us to keep things free from
unpronounceable sweeteners (including stevia and erythritol), but means our
‘booch must be kept chilled between 1-5 degrees at all times to
ensure our thriving brew tastes its best, whilst preventing further
fermentation. This is why you'll only ever
find MOJO living in the fridge
!
Kombucha brewed true. It’s what we do.
2020 will be
MOJO’s eleventh year of brewing true kombucha
, and our team are proud to continue to bring you authentically fermented,
low sugar, organic products with live cultures + probiotics.
Cheers to your health!
Team MOJO
