About Us

Hello, so glad you found us! We are a family run business producing fresh kefir drinks made from fermentation of kefir grains with either organic fresh cow's milk or fresh whole goats milk.
We specialise in fresh kefir grains fermentation, to make delicious live kefir milk kefir drinks.

Our kefir factory is SALSA accredited (Safe and local supplier approval scheme) and regularly inspected by Croydon Council EHO's who awarded us a 5 STAR rating.

18 years of fermenting real kefir grains
We have been growing all our own cultures to make our drinks since Deborah was first given some kefir grains in 2006!   It takes 6 days of fermentation of grains to produce each batch.  A slow fermentation provides the best growth of gut friendly bacteria from the grains.  Real kefir grains are a living microorganism and need good conditions to grow and thrive.

Scientific credentials
Our drinks have been investigated and analysed by :
Channel 4 Superfoods TV series
BBC2’s Trust Me I’m A Doctor  in 2017 (10 people study)
Gut Brain Study as part of South Bank Uni in 2020
ADHD Study with Queen Mary’s University in 2019 and 2023

Organic Kefir is best

We have been producing organic cow’s milk kefir since 2010, and we are audited by the Organic Food Federation.
Organic milk provides customer reassurance that the milk has been farmed with organic farming practices of cow’s grazing in pasture and living a more wholesome life to produce high grade milk.  Organic farming is better for the planet, the cow’s and us!

Being organic certified means we source other organic ingredients, including, organic fruits of blueberry, pomegranate, strawberry, organic vanilla spice, organic whey, and organic agave nectar.

Only the goats milk we use is not organic (yet).  We buy from a trusted, reputable British supplier and we are 100% happy with the quality of the milk and the care of the goats.

In deciding how to name our drinks we decided that Nourish was a good name, because this is what we believe the fermented milk does to our insides.
As for our strap line: ‘the miracle milk drink’, here's our thoughts...

Let's start with the definition of Miracle, a noun meaning “amazing or wonderful occurrence," comes from the Latin miraculum meaning “object of wonder."  (Dictionary.com, Vocabulary.com, Oxford Reference.com)

We believe that the act - art - ability for tiny micro-organisms to transform milk - into a nutrient enriched, bacteria enriched, thicker, delicious tasting yoghurty drink that lasts much longer than milk is TOTALLY AMAZING - a 'miracle' of life itself - encouraging favourable conditions that us humans can take advantage of.  Many years ago our early ancestors would have stumbled across this phenomenon - and reaped the benefits, without understanding the science behind it.  When we ferment kefir grains - they do the work - we can't force them to ferment, it isn't guaranteed they will ferment, we bring the cultures to the milk... and the cultures get to work...kefir grains are objects of wonder!  They occur in nature and are not man made, and when fermented in milk they enrich it with billions of bacteria which have been scientifically proven to have beneficial effects on the gut.

Deborah (our founder), had been suffering for more than 10years with the chronic debilitating symptoms of Crohn's disease and IBS at the same time, which had a massive impact on her life.  But after drinking kefir that she made for herself at home, her painful and embarrassing symptoms started to decrease and within a few months she experienced almost 100% relief.  Recognising this transformation of her gut health as being directly related to her consumption of kefir, she wanted to be able to share this incredible, wondrous kefir with as many people as possible - especially those who could benefit from a relief of their symptoms.  You can read more about Deborah’s full gut healing journey here

DISCLAIMER – the word 'Miracle' used in our slogan 'The Miracle Milk Drink', refers to the phenomenon of fermentation with kefir grains and it's transformative effects on milk.  It is not linked to any other definition of the word ‘miracle’ and does not promise or prescribe that a miracle will occur from drinking kefir.
