Making naturally gut-healthy soda packed with probiotics at home is as easy as mixing sugar into the water - our Water Kefir Grains will do the rest. Add fruit or juice for a refreshing, bubbly drink! If you are just starting out with brewing your own water kefir at home don't forget this culture! It works similar to kombucha but without tea.
What? I know I said WITHOUT tea, but no worries, it's a fun probiotic drink that you can flavor with any of our organic loose-leaf teas or kombucha flavor packs during the 2nd fermentation.

We've been making the water kefir for several months and have enjoyed it's benefits. It's also saving us money since we no longer buy over the counter pills.
This is a wonderful product and a better health choice.
I had water kefir in no time! Rehydrating was simple & after that in a couple of days we had a batch of kefir-first ferment anyway. The flavorings are a fun addition too!

I am overall pleased with the purchase of this starter kit. I am a first time home brewer of Kombucha and this was very beginner friendly. The only thing I am not certain of is, during my research and being on all sorts of Kombucha blogs, I have read/learned that you need 2 cups of starter liquid per gallon. I didn't specifically measure, but I don't think the starter liquid that came with the pellicle was 2 cups, I think it was more like 1 cup, and it did say it makes a gallon, so it may be a little misleading. Fortunately, this did NOT have a negative impact on my batch. My first batch did take a little over 2 weeks to be ready for F2 (which is quite long), but I was still able to get a good batch out of it, which also helped to create future batches. I am now on my 4th batch, so needless to say, even if it wasn't a full 2 cups of starter liquid per gallon, it still worked, just took a bit longer!
I have been wanting to try this herbal tea for quite some time. I finally have and I am a huge fan now! It is delicious on it's own with a little honey mixed in or I will sometimes add calendula and/or chamomile to switch up the flavors a bit. It will remain in my rotation of herbal teas going forward!
I use it as a tea. I add about a teaspoon of honey. Although it seems to have a bit of a peppery taste it is not overpowering. I like the taste of it.
This is my second order for this kit. It is easy to make and I love the flavor. Even my 4 year old great grandson will take it, and that gives me peace of mind, as it will help him from being sick so much.
I absolutely loved the flavor of this. It is probably one of my favorites!
I can’t say which has been my favorite. They all have been packed with beautiful creative layouts-and filled with information and how-to’s to try and experience what is captured on the pictures.
Thank you
Many times I drink coffee just to have some flavor besides water. This is a great way to add better flavor with less caffeine. Love it! I love trying the teas and coffee substitutes from Farmhouse Teas.
I received my order in a very timely manner-as always-Customers service and packaging has been a continuous treat-
I haven’t tried making my first batch but excited about doing so.
We absolutely loved this product. It is by far our favorite herb so far. I was so excited to find this product and the quality is fantastic.
Love this tea, perfect pick me up in the afternoon!
