Thanks Mr Paul! I made this twice .I'm not even Slavic and it's my new favorite drink.The second batch I used Aldi German black pumpernickel(nearly burned in the oven) golden raisins,some sliced mandarins and a sliced lemon.I can't describe the taste,but it's amazing and addictive.

I have made kvass a few times, but prefer the lighter, blonde store bought kvass from my local Russian market. I have noticed that the commercial kvass I like is similar to a light blonde beer in taste, foam, and consistency. Other kvass brands I have tried have a darker almost coca cola color to them and a stronger taste. The longer you let the water steep with the charred bread, the darker in color and stronger in flavor the end goal will be. I have compared many different recipes and a few have stated this. Most people say let steep for 4-12hours. I like 4 hours because it is more like a light beer IMO, but for you just let steep for like 8 hours or overnight. Cheers

make sure to use clean water, or alternatively you can boil water first and then cool it to room temp, and of course use clean utensils, also instead of yeast (or in addition to yeast) you may use raisins (3-5+ per liter) , also I'd recommend to read about fermentation, fermented drinks and home made beers, a lot of fruits and even vegetables can be fermented or made into fermented drinks, sweet or "sweet and sour and salty". Basically, any base fruit or berry, sugar (or honey), a pinch or two of salt and let it sit for a while at room temp, to speed up the process you can add yeast or a few raisins ... in India you can ferment tomatoes and get delicious 'live' sauce or salsa, cut tomatoes up into cubes or mash/crush them, add sugar 2-3 table spoons per 1 liter (4th of a gallon) of tomatoes, add a pinch or two of salt (a tea spoon per litre), add crushed (or sliced) garlic (3-6 cloves per litre, to your taste actually), and a table spoon of horse radish or radish (it's optional), you may also add hot red/chili pepper either as powder or flakes or even fresh, cover it up, let it sit at room temperature for a few hours (6-12+ hrs), then put it in the fridge for a day or two, and fermented salsa is ready ... I make fermented drinks out of citrus fruits, 1 peeled and crushed lemon or an orange or a half of a grapefruit (or you can mix them all) per 1 litre of boiled water (room temp), 3 table spoons of sugar, a pinch or two of salt, optionally you can add a few raisins or a pinch of dry yeast (I do not add any of them), let it sit at room temp for a few hours (6-12+ hrs) for fermentation to start and then put it in the fridge to finish fermentation (1-2 days) and to cool it (I just keep it on the kitchen counter all the time as I do not mind drinking it warm), you can filter out the citrus pulp or leave it in the drink.
