Our Watermelon Peach Sorbet is a treat to the eyes, the taste buds, and your gut health thanks to Lifeway Kefir in the mix. This recipe stars summer’s most beloved fruits: watermelon, peaches, and strawberries, pairing them with gut-healthy Organic Whole Milk Peach Lifeway Kefir for an unforgettable, refreshing sorbet that makes you feel as good as it looks!
Watermelon is a hydrating fruit that contains the antioxidant lycopene, which helps protect our skin from the sun and contains potassium to keep our muscles and hearts in tip-top shape. Peaches are a natural source of beta-carotene (vitamin A), vitamin C, and fiber, not to mention a delight to enjoy during summer. The real star of the show, however, is Lifeway Kefir.
Our probiotic kefir is packed with gut-healthy live and active cultures that support overall wellness and promote a healthy microbiome. Lifeway Kefir is also a high-quality source of complete protein and an excellent source of calcium and vitamin D.

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.
