Water Kefir Grains

Water Kefir Grains by Cultures for Health (CFH) are now available at Quantum Vitamins. Are you wondering what water kefir is and how it differs from milk kefir? Read on to learn more.

Water kefir grains create a carbonated lacto-fermented beverage from sugar water, fruit juice, or coconut water. Incredibly easy to use, the starter culture can create a new batch of water kefir every 24 to 48 hours. Water kefir makes a fantastic non-dairy alternative to milk kefir and can be flavoured to make a range of delicious beverages, or as an ingredient in many recipes. Your family will love it!

Julie Feickert, CFH Founder, explains why she loves this product:

Water kefir is one of my favourite cultured foods. Water kefir is particularly easy to make; I generally spend about 5 minutes every 48 hours to make it. Since it's commonly made with sugar and water, it's also a very inexpensive beverage. While there are several types of cultures available for making kefir, I prefer to use water kefir grains because they are reusable and sustainable. As long as you care for them (it's simple!) they will continue to make batch after batch for you.
