This is a super easy recipe I came up with last week. When Charlie tasted it, he said it tasted really "fresh" and also delicious.
8 oz young coconut meat (freezer section of health food or asian stores)
1 cup cashews, soaked
1 1/2 cups water
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 tablespoon chia seeds (if you're into them)
1 teaspoon probiotic powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Let culture in a non-metal bowl covered with a towel for 12-48 hours, until desired tang is reached. Taste every 4-12 hours during the culturing process. I cultured mine for 24 hours. Serve with everything, but remember this is completely unsweetened - if you add sweetener (maple syrup, date paste, etc.) add it AFTER culturing. Sugar feeds the probiotics and if you add sweetener first, it might culture too quickly and leave you with something inedible.
I like to eat it with sweet fruit, cinnamon, raw, sprouted oats for a sweet breakfast or I mix with herbs and add to a mediterranean plate with falafel, tabbouleh, hummus and cucumbers.
