The fermentation eats most of the sugar, which is how these come in low on sugar and calories without a sweetener in sight, and it leaves the dry, faintly sour base that makes them taste like a grown-up soft drink rather than a squash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fruitiest of the range and the one that tastes most like a holiday. Nearly a quarter of the can is fruit juice, which is unusual for something this low in sugar, and the guava gives it a softness that the lemon then cuts straight back through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFermented with live cultures, not sweetened to imitate one\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sparkling water kefir\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlavour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ripe mango, guava, sharp lemon finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e 250ml can\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDietary:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vegan, dairy-free, caffeine-free, low sugar, no sweeteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSparkling water, water kefir (filtered water, organic kefir cultures, organic sencha green tea extract, organic raw cane sugar), fruit juices from concentrate (24%) (apple, guava, lemon), natural flavourings, live cultures (bacillus clausii, bacillus subtilis, lactic acid bacillus).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs water kefir the same as milk kefir?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. Water kefir uses different cultures and no dairy at all, so it is vegan and much lighter - closer to a soft drink than to a yoghurt drink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it contain alcohol?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. Fermentation can leave trace amounts, but these are sold and labelled as soft drinks and sit below the threshold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat do the live cultures do?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey are the bacteria left over from fermentation.
