Instant Pot Yakult Probiotic Drink Recipe – FOOD is Four Letter Word

Step 1

1)Pour 1 Cup of Water and 1½ Cups Granulated Sugar into the Instant Pot. Choose Saute, and stir until the sugar is dissolved (don’t let the water boil). Press Cancel to turn off Sauté mode and add 2 Cups of Water and wait until the water has cooled to luke warm – if the water is too hot, this can cause the milk to curdle. Add ½ Gallon Fat Free Milk and lastly add 2 80ml Bottles of Yakult and stir well. Seal the Instant Pot lid.

Step 2

2)Choose the Yogurt setting and make sure it’s on Medium / Normal and set for 24 Hours. After about 12 hours, open the lid & whisk the mixture, then close the lid again. Around the 19-24 hour mark, the mixture may look curdled, this is normal, use an immersion blender to get it smooth.

Step 3

3)When it’s done, add ½ Teaspoon Vanilla Extract, ½ Cup Orange Juice, 4 Teaspoons Lemon Juice, ½ Teaspoon Citric Acid and stir very well with a whisk or blend until it looks smooth and homogenous. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. It’s normal for the drink to separate in the fridge since we can’t homogenize the mixture like they do at the factory, so shake well before drinking and enjoy within 10-14 days.
