Koumiss is the best Russian folk remedy, which regenerates the micro flora of the stomach, and we recommend that you try the following recipe…

In a cup of boiling water dissolve 2 tablespoons of honey. Mix well and pour into a large jar. Add 2 tablespoons of kefir and a liter of milk. Stir, cover with two layers of gauze and put in a warm place to rest for three days. Then add a teaspoon of dry yeast, stir and re-cover with gauze.

As soon as you notice bubbles to appear in the jar, the koumiss is over. Place the jar in the fridge and drink 0.5 dl half an hour before meals three times a day for at least two weeks.

Warning: Drivers should not drink koumiss before you sit behind the wheel because it contains a small amount of alcohol.
