Yakult for all!
If you’re not familiar, Yakult is a tasty Probiotic fermented milk drink containing a very high concentration of the unique bacterium Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain (LcS). In a nutshell, this strain is scientifically proven to survive the journey through the gastric juices to reach the small intestine alive, and each of the 65ml bottles contains 6.5 billion of these highly acid-resistant bacteria. Amazing, right? Best of all, you’ll find Yakult readily available at the supermarket.
Suitable for the whole family, young and old, incorporating Yakult into your daily diet is a wise move! Not only will it help you to support your digestive system, but it’ll also help to restore the good flora in your gut, especially after antibiotics. Winning!

Yakult no-churn vanilla bean ice cream recipe
Ingredients
- 500ml thickened cream
- 400g tin sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tsp vanilla bean paste
- 4 Yakult bottles
Method
1. Place all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
2. Using a stand mixer or electric beaters, whip the creamy mixture until soft peaks form.
3. Use a loaf tin or other freezer-safe container to freeze the ice cream in.
4. Use a large spoon or ladle to spoon the ice cream mixture into the pan. Smooth over the top.
5. Place the ice cream in the freezer for at least four hours or ideally, overnight.
6. Scoop and serve!
TIP: If your ice cream is too hard for you to scoop easily, leave the container out on the bench for five minutes to let it soften up a little. Scoop what you want, pop some plastic wrap over the top and place it back in the freezer for next time. Easy!
