Kvass is
a traditional Slavic and Baltic fermented drink commonly made from black bread.
The color of the bread becomes the color of the resulting drink. These drinks
are classified as non-alcoholic beverages based on Russian standards, as the
alcohol content obtained from fermentation is usually low (0.5-1.0%). These
drinks may be flavored with fruits such as strawberries and raisins, or spices
such as mint.
This drink is popular in
"Northern Slavic" countries (except Czech Republic and Slovakia) as
well as Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and Serbia. These drinks are also known in
Mongolia, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and
Armenia. Kvass is also famous in Harbin and Xinjiang, China, which is
influenced by Russian culture.
Many kvass vendors are
selling these drinks on the streets.
