First fermentation

Combine water and sugar in a 1,5 litre jar, shake until sugar is dissolved.

Add remaining ingredients, cover with muslin and secure, you can also use a lid but don´t put it tight.

Place jar out of direct sun light and ferment for 48 hours. Water will become cloudy, slightly effervesent and sweet when ready.

Strain kefir into a jar or bottle and use grains to start a new fermentation.

Second fermentation

Before you start the second fermentation you can ad any flavour, use fruits, herbs, vegetables as you wish.

Leave bottle at room temperature with tight-fitting lid for 1-2 days or until carbonated, you can open the lid once a day to “burp” the kefir.

A finished probiotic drink can be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks.

Bon Appetit !
