💡 Fermentation Tip for Summer:
Warm weather speeds up fermentation, which means your second ferment can go from perfectly fizzy to overactive in hours. Check your bottles every 12 hours to avoid too much carbonation. Always open over the sink with a cloth draped over the top, unclasping slowly to release pressure.
Made in British Columbia by Canada’s largest producer of water kefir grains, this drink is part of our mission to help you enjoy gut-friendly, naturally fizzy drinks all year long — without any artificial ingredients.
So grab those peaches while they’re in season, and let this sweet, vanilla-scented sparkle brighten up your summer!

Recipe Note
HEAT INCREASES FERMENTATION ACTIVITY
Please ensure that you check your second ferment every 12 hours in the summer. Water kefir loves warm temps and can easily become overactive with an explosive fizz. It’s best to open your bottle over the sink with a cloth over the swivel top and unclasp slowly. Summer fermenting is unpredictable and it’s best to check on your ferments more often.
