Last week, I received another order of water kefir grains. One cup if you want to be specific…
They are multiplying much faster than the initial ones that I received. These grains were purchased from another supplier, naturally I’m pleased.
As you can see, I now have a nice supply of natural soda. The above picture is water kefir apple soda and the darker bottles are Hibiscus natural soda. I can’t wait to sample the soda. We already like the Hibiscus water kefir soda, but the apple soda will be a new blend.
How FANTASTIC! Love the different NATURAL colors, too! Awesome!
Oh! BTW…I posted my very first YouTube Video today 🙂

@Jennifer, These water kefir grains are crazy healthy. They seem to be multiplying every time I swap their water/sugar mixture.
I’m currently sipping on a brew that taste a lot like a non alcohol corona. The water kefir gobbled up all the sugar. I let it set in a very warm kitchen. I won’t do that again, since I don’t want to potentially damage the grains, but I like the taste.

@Opal,
WOW! That sounds tasty!
Perhaps you mentioned this before but I can’t remember – what are the water kefir grains made up of?? I guess I should google it again, too!

@Jennifer, Not really, the one video I showed where the man was rooting through the kefir talks about it a bit. It’s a combination of yeast and bacteria. It is derived from some type of cactus, but I’ve read there are other ways also. From what I’ve read it’s been around a long time. What is kefir and Where it comes from is a draft that I’m currently working on, since those were some of the first questions I had even before I started. I’m hoping to finish my research soon, so I can publish here within the next week or so…
