Ingredients
- 4 cups Full Fat Coconut Milk (about 2 Cans)
- 1 Teaspoon Date Paste or Organic Sugar
- 1/4 cup Prepared Water Kefir or Coconut Water Kefir
Instructions
- Before you get started you’ll need 1/4 cup of prepared water kefir or coconut water kefir. You can use homemade or store bought.
- Next, you’ll need some coconut milk. I like natural valley coconut milk because it’s organic, BPA free and is additive free.
- Pour your coconut milk into a very clean blender and add 1 teaspoon of date paste or organic sugar. You need to add sugar to your milk for the cultures to eat during the fermentation process. Blend the coconut milk and date paste up and pour the milk into a glass jar.
- Add 1/4 cup of water kefir to the milk and gently mix. Don’t mix too vigorous, just enough to combine the kefir with the coconut milk.
- Put the lid on the jar and let it ferment at room temperature for 18-24 hours, or until it’s tart and sour.
- Store in the refrigerator.
