Homemade Bread Kvass

Beverages

Homemade Bread Kvass

Dark rye bread toasted until almost charred, steeped in boiling water, sweetened, and left to ferment for one to two days with a small amount of yeast. Kvass is one of the oldest fermented drinks in Eastern European cuisine â mildly sour, faintly sweet, with a roasted bread depth that no other drink has. The active preparation takes thirty minutes; everything else is waiting. The result is a lightly carbonated drink with less than 1% alcohol, deeply satisfying cold on a hot day.
