HAPPY KOMBUCHA BLOG — blog

I like my ginger beer throaty with personality over lightly flavoured sugar water. But the good thing is that you don't really have to choose. You can make your ginger beer however you like it. If you like only a touch of ginger and don't want it too fiery just reduce the amount of fresh ginger you add and you can just omit the chillies if you don't want that throaty quality......

Online kefir workshop, join Sam the founder of Ki Kefir and a friend of Happykombucha's to learn how about making, using and consuming kefir.

The workshop will cover the process of making kefir (dairy versions only), all the key tips & tricks within the making process and the benefits fermented foods has on your health . There will be ample time to ask Sam all of your kefir questions at the end of the demo. You will also receive recipes to use your kefir in. 

Before the age of refrigeration Fermentation was historically used as a food preservation process where sugars are broken down by bacteria and yeasts. As such, fermented foods are a great source of probiotics because they contain live bacteria.

Read how to keep your cultures warm without turning on the heating in this helpful guide.
