I knew you had a Kvass video someplace, I just hadn't run into it yet on Youtube :)

So, this year, our family has had an exchange student from Moldova who speaks Russian (from Transnistria to be more precise). She just flew back home today, but last week I took her to Los Angeles so she could see Hollywood and the beach - things we're lacking here in Kansas. We went to West Hollywood and went to the Odessa Grocery Store, where they had plenty of Kvass and many other things, but I bought a can of Kvass and took it to the beach the next day. Very interesting flavor - almost a molasses flavor I thought. I definitely will try to make it myself now that I've tried it once, so thank you very much for the recipe!

We also went to the Traktir restaurant and had some shashlik, golubtsi, and plenty of kompot.
