There are three ways in which to prepare coconut water kefir – using existing kefir, kefir grains or kefir starter culture. The least expensive method is with kefir grains. How do you make it?
Ingredients
· 5 tbs. water kefir grains
· 7 c. fresh coconut water
· 1 Ceylon cinnamon stick
Directions
· Pour coconut water into 1/2 gallon jar, adding water kefir grains
· Loosely cover the jar, setting it aside for 48 hours. Any longer could lead to an explosion due to the fermentation process.
· Once fermented, the color gets lighter.
· Once the culturing process is done, the kefir grains float to the top and need to be removed.
You can use these same kefir grains to create another batch.
