Coming off/working up to a water fast:Homemade Water Kefir, Kombucha...

Hi everyone, I started thinking about Watermelon kefir this morning, and coconut kefir, and various kinds of kombucha.

Watermelon juice on its own is wonderful, esp. when it's very hot. And of course real fresh young coconut juice is unbeatable; worthy of its own 'water' fast; but I'm thinking coconut kombucha would be a good way to Up the benefits of coconut water, when you live in a place -as I do- where they are not really available fresh-picked. I've had them right off the treeeand I know what good coconut tastes like...

Just wondering if anyone has experience with making/drinking water kefirs, and kombucha. I mean the homemade kind. :-)

I've been experimenting with yerba mate kombucha, and I have it in a second ferment right now. The very best kombucha I ever tasted was a batch I made with green tea, that I then left out all winter on the patio, and then added some fresh apricot to, and let it sit awhile longer. wow!!! Truly, these things are precious, health-giving elixirs.

and would go so well with a good water fast--You know what I mean!

down with all sodas and fake 'sports' drinks.
watermelon-coconut kefir, anyone?
