ORGANIC MILK KEFIR

Milk Kefir is a delicious, slightly carbonated fermented Healthy Probiotic Drink. It originated roughly 2,000 years ago in Russia, the Caucasus Mountains between the Black and Caspian Seas, making Kefir one of the oldest milk ferments in existence. 

I have been drinking it my whole life and can tell you about its health benefits. I have an incredible memories of how my mother and grandmother made it. I was taught to drink it fresh and natural without sweeteners. To keep my family tradition alive, I make an Incredible Milk Kefir Probiotic Drink and would like to share it with you. 

Remember! Purchase Milk Kefir Starter culture from the Reliable source!

Remember to use Glass, Plastic and Wooden kitchen utensils.

Rinse Kefir Grains with filtered water. Place them in a clean glass jar, and add milk.

Important! Kefir will ferment much more quickly in the summer and warmer temperature. Also, if you have other types of fermentation such as bread yeasts or kefir, keep these cultures physically separate from each other to prevent cross contamination. If you take these extra steps, you will rewarded with a healthy drink.

When Kefir is Ready, Stir and Strain out Kefir Grains. Rinse and Start fermenting a new batch again.

Collect Kefir. Enjoy drink immediately, Store in the refrigerator using glass bottles or live it at the room temperature to start making Healthy Cheese Spread.

ORGANIC KOMBUCHA

Known as the "Immortal Health Elixir" by the Chinese and originating in the Far East around 2,000 years ago, Kombucha is a beverage with tremendous health benefits!

The sugar tea solution is fermented by bacteria and yeast commonly known as a "SCOBY'' (Symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast).

There are very important steps/information you should know before you start making your Kombucha: 

Remember to keep your hands and area clean when touching your SCOBY, during preparation and fermentation. Your glass fermentation jar should be disinfected without using chemicals by inverting the jar in a pan of boiling water to make it germ free. 
During fermentation, use a porous cloth covers to protect your SCOBY and to provide it fresh air. 

REMEMBER! Purchase Mother SCOBY and the Starter Tea from the Reliable source! 
To make a Great Kombucha you will need HAPPY, HEALTHY, ACTIVE SCOBY AND THE STARTER TEA!


SCOBY AND THE STARTER TEA AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT DISCOUNT PRICE TO KOMBUCHA CLASS ATTENDEES!  A high quality product available at a good price so more people can benefit from the health benefits from drinking Kombucha.
