0.5–2% alcohol which isn’t significant unless you were to drink it by the gallon. that is similar to Kombuchas.

0,002–0,005% for mass produced Kefir in Germany as per Wikipedia.

Mass produced is probably not what you want because it's usually pasteurized.

I still kind of like texture and how it keeps cold so when I drink it in the morning it is refreshing.

Mostly use it to have it as something before I drink coffee not to have one on empty stomach.

This is a new one on me. I didn't realize it had some. Fortunately, it has less alcohol than beer.
