Water kefir is a probiotic beverage made by placing grains known as water kefir grains into sugary liquid and allowing them to ferment the liquid. The end result is a beverage that’s packed with probiotic cultures that can be used as a base to make a number of other drinks.

Water Kefir is dairy free which makes it better choice for those looking to eliminate dairy from their diet.
