It seems like everyone these days is crazy for kefir, a creamy fermented milk drink that is full of probiotics. If you love the idea of kefir, but you don't love dairy, try making your own version at home ... with soy milk! This two-ingredient recipe is as simple as can be (seriously, you don't really have to do much thanks to the magic of fermentation), and the result is slightly thick, perfectly tangy, and full of goodness for your gut. If you are soy-averse, try experimenting with other types of non-dairy milks and see which one you like the best! You can find ready-to-drink water kefir at your local health food store.

Hi, can I use kefir from milk as the 1/4 to get it started?
Do you close the lid tightly or loose for gas to escape? I make fermented vegetable and the gases need to excape but I also make ginger ale where the bottle must be tight to have the fizz.
