In Doy’s garden

Log it in Doydum and a row of potatoes sprouts in today’s bed in front of Doy’s house.

Kefir is milk fermented with kefir grains into a tangy, slightly fizzy drink that is thinner than yogurt. It is sold plain or flavoured and drunk on its own, blended into smoothies or poured over cereal.

Flavoured kefir usually has added sugar, so check the label if yours is not plain.
