Kefir - what is it?
Kefir is a centuries old fermented milk drink, with a consistency of drinking yoghurt, and a delicious creamy taste that's slightly sour, a little like creme fraiche, with the hint of a fizz that adds to its uniqueness. These days it is made in a variety of ways and with different ingredients, but the authentic, traditional or 'real' kefir, (which is what we make) is revered because it contains billions of gut friendly good bacteria.
When we say 'real' what we mean is that the milk is fermented with actual living kefir grains, which is what these good bacteria are called.
