Probiotic Fruit Drink

 

One of the blogs I like to follow is Primally Inspired because Kelly is upbeat and shares a lot of great recipes and ideas.  This video highlights one of them–her yummy, easy to make, fermented probiotic fruit drink.  She happens to use strawberries but other fruits are equally delicious.  Give your favorite a try.  One of the great things about this drink is there aren’t any strange chemicals or bugs making it red, and there isn’t any high fructose corn syrup.
