KVASS

Kvass is an Eastern European fermented beetroot drink using salt as the active ingredient. As with the other fermented foods I've experimented with, kvass is beneficial to gut health.
My attempts at making kvass worked but, to me, the salty flavour was not good. I tried it on a few friends and all, except one, hated it. The colour is gorgeous, but I think this is a drink you have to have grown up with to love. I tried making it using carrot and ginger too - which tasted just as bad.
If you like a salty, sparkling beverage, then this one may be for you.
