Almond Kefir

I love almonds and they make wonderful kefir. If you need a dairy-free kefir option, this is a good one. But check out my recipe for thicker almond kefir since most of the almond kefir recipes will make thinner kefir. Almonds are food for our 100 trillion microbe friends and we always need more quality friends. Check out this article to learn more about how healthy almonds are. Reasons To Love Almond Kefir When making non-dairy kefir, you just need to be sure the non-dairy milk has at least 8 grams of carbohydrates to give the bacteria something to eat. It uses the sugars and creates probiotics for you. You don’t get the sugar but instead you get lots of healthy bacteria. If it doesn’t have 8 grams of carbohydrates, then you can add 1 teaspoon of date paste or raw sugar per quart to give the bacteria food so it can make probiotics.
