Why this works
Kefir carries a far broader range of live microbial strains than most yogurts, and the polyphenols and fiber in berries give those microbes something to feed on once they arrive.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plain live kefir
- 3/4 cup mixed raspberries and blueberries
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
- Few mint leaves (optional)
Method
- 1Tip the berries into a bowl or a wide glass.
- 2Pour the kefir over the top so the berries float up through it.
- 3Sprinkle the ground flaxseed over the surface.
- 4Add mint and eat straight away, before the flax thickens it.
Yvette's tip
Frozen berries work perfectly here and cost a third as much, the kefir chills into a soft ice cream texture around them.
