The #1 question we get asked is “are my grains dead?”
As long as you can still visibly see your water kefir grains they are alive! Water kefir grains are a living culture that have been around for centuries. They’re resilient, but they do have their preferences.
New grains need two or three batches to fully acclimatize to their new environment. Little action at first is completely normal. Keep everything consistent (same water, same sugar, proper temperature).
Remember: fizz only builds in the second ferment with added sugar, so a flat first ferment is expected🫧

Copycat 7UP water kefir recipe 🍋🍋🟩
Do you love pop but don’t love all the added sugar? This copycat 7UP filled with probiotics is about to become your new favourite recipe!
INGREDIENTS:
🍋4 cups of first ferment
🍋1 tsp of a mixed lemon and lime zest.
🍋1 tbsp lemon juice
🍋🟩1 tbsp lime juice
🍋🟩5 pieces candied ginger
INSTRUCTIONS:
1️⃣ Make the first ferment and leave the jar in a warm place for 24-48 hours.
2️⃣ Zest the lemon and lime to make up about 1 tsp of mixed zests.
3️⃣ Add zests, candied ginger and juices into a clean and sanitized swivel top bottle.
4️⃣ Strain the grains, and pour the first ferment into the swivel top bottle.
5️⃣ Seal the bottle, and gently tip upside down 2 or 3 times to ensure ingredients are well mixed.
6️⃣ Leave the bottle in a warm place for 24 hours for the second ferment.
7️⃣ Once desired carbonation is reached, refrigerate until well chilled.
*Since lemons and limes have such low sugar content, it may take longer to get fizz in the second ferment*

We get a lot of questions about our water kefir kit and if it’s necessary to buy 🤔
The answer is no, you don’t need it! You could buy the water kefir grains and source all the equipment but the kit definitely makes it easier!
Our founder, Leeza, designed this kit after struggling to find the proper equipment for brewing. Everything in this kit is intentional, from the nylon strainer to the proper sized jar and bottle.

Water kefir has the potential to help anyone with gut problems caused by imbalance and the stresses of modern life. I believe it should be available and accessible to everyone. At Happy Gut, we are on a mission to make this happen.
Several years ago, my sister-in-law Ursula shared some water kefir grains with me. I was intrigued that she and her medical co-workers were making and drinking water kefir to boost their immunity. As a teacher, I thought that if this could work amongst hospital staff, it could also work in schools. With great enthusiasm I decided I needed to brew this for myself, my family and friends.
But, it just wasn’t that easy. I struggled to find all the right water kefir brewing supplies in my local region then started my first batch, but I had no idea what I was doing and I was overwhelmed. I didn’t want to be fermenting something harmful, so I did some research and found a lot of mixed information.
Through trial and error, I got better at making water kefir. My kefir grains multiplied profusely—it seemed I had struck the perfect combination of fresh, mineral rich water and mixed organic sugars to achieve an explosion of beautiful, plump, water kefir grains. I believed there were other people like me who wanted to make water kefir and would appreciate a simpler way to start.
At the same time, people started telling me that I was looking great and I didn’t get sick at all that year, yet the only thing that I had changed in my life was drinking water kefir on a daily basis. There had to be something about this drink that was boosting my immunity and improving the health of my gut.
Since those first days, I’ve learned a lot about water kefir and its benefits and know that this drink has changed my life and it has the potential to change yours, too. A Home Brewing Supply Company providing the finest supplies to handcraft probiotic rich Water Kefir.
