Hi Lark, I was hoping that you would comment. :o) You confirmed what I was thinking. It seems as though the producers are making a point of L. Reuteri being...

Hi Irma, I don't use recipes. I started with organic grape juice. Dilute about half with clean water (I use distilled). Add some kefir grains. I use rinsed...
