Bite into a delicious cone of gut-healthy, refreshing Mint Chocolate Chip Frozen Kefir made with Lifeway Kefir for your next frozen dessert. This classic combination of chocolate and mint is better than what you’ll find in the store because this recipe is made with clean, wholesome ingredients.

We start with Lifeway Kefir for gut-loving probiotics. Then for natural color, we add spirulina powder, a green superfood know for its antioxidants and frozen banana for sweetness along with vitamins and minerals. A dose of avocado adds additional green color and wonderfully creamy consistency while a handful of fresh mint and a tiny drop of mint extract finish out the recipe with that burst of mint flavor we all know and love about mint chocolate ice cream. And since it’s made with Lifeway Kefir, you can be sure you’re giving your gut a loving dose of probiotics along with your dessert.

The Benefits of Cultured Dairy for Better Health:

Research continues to show the importance of eating healthy foods, including cultured dairy such as kefir, for better gut health, a strong immune system, and to support the microbiome. Fermented foods like kefir hold important value in this line of research due to the link between the gut-brain axis and overall health.

Specifically, kefir has been shown to help diversify the microbiome, support the digestive system, reduce inflammation, support healthier blood sugar levels, and improve satiety since the bioavailable protein it contains triggers the release of GLP-1. Lifeway Kefir also contains a variety of nutrients that are vital for healthy bones and overall health including vitamins D3, K, and B 12 along with calcium and potassium. Along with our kefir, we also offer our creamy, cultured Lifeway Farmer Cheese, a high protein cheese made with live and active cultures to support a healthy microbiome that’s easy to spread and contains no added salt or sugar.
