Water Kefir
Water Kefir, also known by many as Tibiscos, Japanese Water Crystals or Snow Lotus etc., is a dairy-free probiotic drink made by fermenting sweetened solutions with water kefir cultures. The resultant brew is a bubbly and refreshing health drink containing a plethora of nutrients like a variety of enzymes and organic acids, and a range of B vitamins, vitamin K and folic acid and of course, beneficial gut-healing bacteria.
Typical water kefirs have a mix of Lactobacillus, Streptococcus, Pediococcus and Leuconostoc bacteria with yeasts like Hanseniaospora valbyensis, Lachancea fermentati, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Zygotorulaspora florentina among other wild yeasts and good bacteria.*
*NOTE: As we do not test water kefir grains for yeast and bacteria content, we cannot guarantee what the exact probiotic makeup of our water kefir grains are.

Water kefir provides fresh probiotics without the need for dairy or tea cultured products, such as kombucha or milk kefir. It may be an option for customers who prefer to go dairy-free.
