Water Kefir</b><br/>
Ingredients / Utensils<br/>
8-cup glass jar. I use a Mason jar.<br/>
Plastic sieve or colander.<br/>
<br/>
¼ cup+ water kefir grains<br/>
2-3 unsulphured dates (or other dried fruit: prunes, apricots, raisins)<br/>
1/2 organic lemon (or peeled if not organic)<br/>
1/3-1/2 cup sugar- brown, raw, white or Rapadura etc.<br/>
1 tsp of unsulfured black strap molasses (for minerals).<br/>
fill jar 2/3 with fresh water, preferably spring water or well water. ***MUST be <u><b>non-chlorinated</b></u> water!! No tap water.<br/>
<br/>
Store covered in the cupboard at room temperature for 24-72 hours.<br/>
Strain the grains from the liquid kefir, and repeat above.<br/>
Store the liquid kefir in the refrigerator until use. Use within a week<br />
or so. Start with small quantities of 1 tablespoon, gradually<br />
increasing (or decreasing) depending upon tolerance<br/>
<br/>
The water kefir grains will reproduce rapidly! Share the extra with friends and neighbors for improved health.<br/>
