Water Kefir: Drinking your microbes with flavour, colour and bubbles!

We underestimate the impact that our micobiome has on our lives. We are so outnumbered by the microbial DNA in and on our bodies, compared to our cellular DNA but we, generally speaking, don’t respect the positive relationship they largely bring to our lives! Proportionally speaking, the bad bacteria are a small proportion of the mix I refer to. We need to incorporate and rebuild this diverse ecosystem of microbes in us and on us!

We’ve previously discussed how other ferments do this but have yet to introduce water kefir, so here she is in all her beauty and ferocity.
