Coconut Almond Kefir Ice Cream
Coconut milk is full of medium chain fatty acids, which supports the thyroid and gives you energy. It also provides important minerals needed to maintain blood volume, regulate heart health, and help with digestion. This recipe is a great way to enjoy kefir. Remember, you can make kefir in any kind of milk.~Donna

Recipe Notes
I use stevia to sweeten my kefir ice cream. I like to use different versions together - such as a liquid and a powdered version of stevia. When used together, they seem to work better. For a regular sweetener, honey, Sucanat, or coconut sugar are good choices. Add more than 1/4 cup if you need it sweeter.
