Kvass is a mildly sour drink made by fermenting a liquid prepared from rye bread or other cereal products. Fermentation can produce alcohol; its amount depends on production, so do not assume homemade kvass is necessarily low in alcohol. It is enjoyed as a refreshing drink.

Where It’s Used

“Make kvass at home by fermenting stale rye bread in water.”
