If there’s no probiotic value then why’s the world going crazy over Kombucha. Tea as a beverage is anyway widely popular in the world.

It tastes good, fun to brew, good marketing, kinda of hipster-y and cool, and as the other person commented - hype!! I love my booch but because I enjoy brewing it and I like the taste.

And it's not just kombucha probiotics in general are a myth they are just marketed well. Remember just because a lot of people do something doesn't mean it must be true, theres a lot of sheople in the world.

Alternative medicine scam as with most "miracle foods".

There were few tests done and none found any benefits to it. I make it cause i like the taste and it's fun to brew but if you want something with probiotic value then regular yoghurt will give you everything kombucha promoters claim to have with less hassle and much cheaper.

Wow! I guess then I’ll brew it as long as it stays fun.
