I’ve been a little obsessed with kefir lately. When I saw they had an eggnog flavor, I jumped right on it. I’ve been enjoying kefir as is, but this time wanted to try it in a recipe.
Kefir naturally has a tangy flavor, so when incorporating it in a smoothie, a banana was the perfect way to sweetened it up.
Eggnog only comes around once a year, so I don’t mind indulging in a small glass one time a year. Eggnog just screams Christmas to me, and I want to enjoy that seasonal treat more than once without the guilt!
Enjoy as a breakfast, snack, or dessert to get in the holiday spirit! I know what I’ll be making for breakfast Christmas morning!

I secretly love eggnog. I had no idea Lifeway had a kefir version – must look for this! Thanks for sharing 🙂
My kids are kefir obsessed. They drink it daily which, of course, is a good thing for their micro biome! I love your recipe. I always find eggnog to be too sweet, but this looks so much lighter!
Didn’t know there was such a thing a kefir eggnog. I like how you used it!
I love this idea for a way to enjoy eggnog (and get your yearly fix) without blowing it all out with cream and eggs. My younger daughter would love this, as she is also obsessed with Kefir.
