Driftwest Water Kefir

Our Story

To us, water kefir is the perfect probiotic solution: a live, raw, naturally fermented product that is known to contain a broad-spectrum of probiotic strains without the assertive flavor profile of so many cultured foods and beverages. We set out to make water kefir that was everything we first loved about it: approachable, mild, and refreshing with fruit-forward flavor profiles. We keep our sugars low, our ingredient lists short, and source entirely non-GMO and partially organic ingredients.

Q & A

About Water Kefir

What is water kefir and how it is made?

Water kefir is a probiotic beverage made by culturing water and organic cane sugar with kefir “grains” – a live culture, known as a SCOBY or a Symbiotic Colony of Bacteria and Yeasts. Water kefir is often flavored with fruit, herbs, or spices and may contain natural or added carbonation as well.

Does it contain gluten or dairy?

No, water kefir is naturally vegan, and free of gluten, dairy, and caffeine.

Does water kefir contain any alcohol?

Yes. Water kefir contains a trace amount of alcohol from the fermentation process. This amount is under .5%, and is therefore considered a non-alcoholic beverage.

How is water kefir different from kombucha?
Water kefir and kombucha have multiple key differences. Firstly, kombucha is made by culturing tea and sugar as opposed to filtered water and sugar. Kombucha and water kefir also use different SCOBY cultures, and therefore contain both different strains and amounts of beneficial bacteria, acids, and yeasts.
Why is it so important to keep water kefir chilled?
When we say water kefir is alive, we’re not kidding! It’s full of beneficial bacteria and yeasts; and since it’s raw and unpasteurized, all of these are still active in your drink-the whole point of probiotics right? Keeping water kefir cold will prevent it from going into a “second fermentation” which can lead to over-cultured flavors and higher carbonation.
