Cooking Steps
In a glass jar, combine the water kefir, fresh strawberries, torn basil leaves, and optional organic cane sugar.
Stir well to dissolve the sugar and crush the strawberries slightly.
Cover the jar with a cloth or coffee filter and secure it with a rubber band.
Let the mixture sit at room temperature for 24-48 hours, depending on the desired level of fermentation. The longer it sits, the more tart and fizzy it will become.
After 24-48 hours, strain the liquid through a fine-mesh strainer, discarding the strawberries and basil leaves.
Transfer the liquid to a bottle or jar with a tight-fitting lid and refrigerate until ready to drink.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
