Lacto-Fermented Lemonade






I have been making this Hindu Lemonade for awhile now. I love it and it's a great way to get your probiotics. Plus it's super easy to make and you can add a million different things to it once it's done (mint, fruit, ginger, chia seeds, mineral water). I started making concoctions like this when I wanted to drink less in the evenings and still feel like I was getting something special. 

All the sugar gets eaten up in the fermentation process, so it's not high calorie either (another bonus). It would be a good drink for a Momma to be too. I will have to admit that I've added booze to it and it makes a lovely 'healthy' vodka drink ;)

You can make smoothies out of it too. This recipe is pretty tasty. If you bottle it and leave it in the fridge awhile it will get bubbly, but I can never wait long enough. Also I don't have much room in my refrigerator.

If you don't know how to get whey I did a blog post on it here. I would love to hear what you do with this recipe.
