In regards to raw milk I find goat milk is great. When my son was a baby in the sixties, he could not tolerate cows milk. It caused him to have upper and lower respiratory problems. Trouble breathing and frequent colds. My dad knew a man who lived out in the country who had a goat dairy. He had started the dairy for his son who had severe asthma as a baby. Goat milk is tolerated really well for babies and asthmatics as it does not clog them up. So I began going out there and buying a couple of gallons every week. That milk was raw, cold and delicious. Yes, my husband and I drank it as well. My baby thrived on it. The farmer said he got a lot of compliments about how good his goat milk tasted. He said the reason was because he kept his female goats completely separated from the male goats because if he didn't the male goat could cause her to make a hormone that would make her milk taste bad. A few years later when our son was seven and his sister was ten, we bought a small nubian goat for fifty dollars. My daughter milked her twice a day, at 7:00 am and 6:pm. I turned a chair upside down to have her stand between the legs and my son scratched her ears and held her food bowl steady while she ate and my daughter milked her. By then I had two more children for a total of four. Our milk bill was $ 4.99 a month for fifty pounds of feed. Our goat's name was Sarah and she was a wonderful family pet that we enjoyed for a long time.

Can you make it without milk? I'm lactose intolerant and cant tolerate ANY kind of milk (even raw)

Yeah these people act like raw milk is just in any grocery store, well it's not. In fact, I don't even think it legal in PA. Mercola tells us use raw milk, but what am I suppose to do if I can not get it?

People refer to raw milk as if they assume it is abundantly available. I live in Florida where raw milk products are banned. Our family drank raw milk from a local farm (cheaper than grocery store milk) when we lived in Pennsylvania. Our kids grew up on it. It was wonderful--straight from the cow. Now the state of Florida has decided I am not allowed to have it. I long for it. I am a protein-type and could use plenty of whole raw milk. I do drink milk that has no added growth hormones, but unfortunately it is pasteurized and homogenized. Ugh!

if you use liquid stevia extract it won't fizz up like that... 5 drops is plenty

I notice how her "raw" milk is in plastic instead of a glass jar. Liquid stored in plastic is not suppose to be safe.

I hope no one actually thinks people in England DO say 'Yummy scrummy'! I've never heard anyone say it, thank goodness. Lucy, you read too much Enid Blyton!

We're more likely to say, 'That's the dogs bollocks!' Still, Lucy's cute so I'll let her off this time.

Tiggy.

What is the difference between natural sparkling water and club soda? Thanks, Althea

Thank you Lucy for great the recipes you've given so far. Keep up the good work. I will be trying this drink tonight. I also like Xylitol more than Stevia.

Aren't splenda packets mostly bulking agent? If so, wouldn't it be better to use pure stevia liquid or powder?

I am surprised that you recommend using xylitol. I am concerned that if it kills bacteria in the mouth, does it kill bacteria in the intestines? I am not convinced that it is a safe sweetner, not enough time in use yet.You can also use fruit juice with the sparkling water and it makes a nice drink depending on the juice you use.

Sparkling water gives us many possibilities. A friend of mine cuts her wine with it to reduce her wine consumption.

My favorite soda replacement is this fermented water kefir soda process:
