Lemon Kvass

Kvass is not only one of the tastiest non-alcoholic drink there is, but it is also very healthy, containing many vitamins and helping to maintain a healthy level of intestinal bacteria.

Lemon Kvass recipe ingredients:

*
12 quarts of water
* 6 ripe lemons, sliced with seeds removed
* 2 1/2 pounds of brown sugar or honey
* 1 pound of raisins
* 2 tablespoons of brewers yeast

Lemon Kvass recipe instructions:

Pour 2-3 quarts of the water over the lemon slices and mix in the honey or brown sugar, then cover and let it ferment for 1 day.

Mix in the remaining ingredients and cover again. Store in a warm place until the raisins and lemon slices float to the top.

Use a fine sieve to strain the juice in to bottles, seal and let sit for 5-6 days.
