Workshop is $25 per person. Learn how to make your own refreshing, bubbly soda containing over forty strains of probiotics (over 6 times more than yogurt) using water kefir.  Water kefir is a traditional probiotic culture, grown and cared for by many generations who used it to ferment sweet liquid into a healthy, hydrating drink – the precursor to modern day soda.  In the class we will taste different recipes including ginger ale, bottle a fermented batch, and you will start a batch of water kefir to take home and ferment your own healthy drinks. Water kefir is self propagating so once you have the basics you can make your own sodas indefinitely. *Please bring to class a glass quart jar with lid for your first batch of water kefir.*  Since Rebecca needs a week to prepare kefir for this workshop, a minimum of 5 students must commit to attend by 2/18/12.  Contact Rebecca directly at 727-688-9069 or email rebeccabeekeeper@yahoo.com.
