Pineapple Plum Coconut Water Kefir – A Naturally Hydrating Electrolyte Soda

Looking for a way to hydrate and refresh without reaching for sugary drinks or artificial electrolyte mixes? This Pineapple Plum Coconut Water Kefir Soda is a tropical, tangy, and totally nourishing solution. Developed by the Happy Gut team using fermented coconut water, this bubbly soda is rich in natural electrolytes, low in sugar, and packed with probiotic power.

Fermenting coconut water with Happy Gut water kefir grains means you don’t need to add any sugar. The grains consume the natural sugars found in coconut water during fermentation, leaving you with a lightly tangy, fizzy drink that contains only 1–2 grams of sugar per cup. Add in ripe pineapple and juicy plums for a second ferment that delivers flavour, gut-friendly goodness, and hydration in every sip.

It’s perfect after a workout, on a hot summer day, or any time you want a beverage that supports your electrolyte balance, digestion, and energy levels — without the crash that sugar or caffeine can lead to.

Why It Works:

  • Coconut water provides natural electrolytes like potassium and magnesium
  • Water kefir introduces live probiotics and enzymes for gut health
  • Pineapple + plum offer vitamin C, antioxidants, and a tropical-tart kick
  • Naturally low in sugar and made with whole-food ingredients

Heads up: while water kefir grains can happily ferment coconut water for a short time, they still need to return to a traditional sugar-based brew every few batches to stay healthy. Make regular water kefir with coconut sugar after every third ferment to keep your grains strong and thriving. Have questions about this? Email our brewer at hello@happygutpro.com

And remember, summer fermentation moves fast. Coconut water ferments quickly in heat, so check your second ferment every 8–12 hours. Always open your bottle carefully over the sink with a towel over the top in case the bubbles go wild.

This hydrating soda is functional, flavourful, and one more reason to love fermenting with Happy Gut!
