I used their neonate one before. They are supposed to be really good, but I still think nothing beats homemade kefir.

GRAPE SODA!!!
sooooo yummy!
In a glass mason jar,
culture the grains in water and sugar I use natural organic sugar so it has some nutrients and colors the water a light brown. If I have organic raisins on hand I throw a few in. then let it sit till it till it starts fizzing/ bubbling and then I strain the grains and add organic grape juice to the liquid, close and culture another day or so.
voila grape soda!!
You can make it mild the first few times so it is a bit sweeter and not so strong.
Sometimes I culture the grains straight in the grape juice and it is good too.
Kind of has a slight fizzy, wine/vinegar taste but sweet and we drink it out of shot glasses smile.gif You can add it to smoothies etc; too.
start with just about a tablespoon.
If you can get milk kefir it has even more probiotics!!!!
I usually just put the jars in one of my kitchen cabinets and since it is really warm here it fizzes real fast.

How about organic apple juice? can you get that, would your kids like it?
I don't use the regular kedem since as far as I know the preservatives/sulfites will inhibit the grains and not let them totally culture.
You could use any organic juice.
btw, this week I was out of grape juice so I just made the regular sugar water kefir with added raisins - yes, my kids don't like it, but, I added it to a little seltzer and 2 of them drank it. I also added it to a smoothie and everyone drank that!
You have to be creative and play around with stuff, you never know what they might love:)
I have been trying to get ds 2 1/2 to drink a little of my nettle infusion......he detects it in everything, shakes his litlle head and says nononon smile.gif
The other day I put a little bit in half a cup of coconut milk with a little raw honey.....he said mmmmm, mmmmm, and signed for more!!!
I know, with some kids nothing works.....I have 2 of those who just want to swallow a capsule and that's it........
