Where to buy kvass

Yes, its available. Find a Russian or Ukranian grocery store. Yep, and if the OP doesn’t have any of those stores near them I’m pretty sure they could find an online Russian/Ukranian grocery in the US that sells Kvass.

Kvass is not produced as an alcoholic beverage, and while there may be amounts of alcohol in it from natural fermentation, it is not intentional or consistent, so it is not generally considered an alcoholic beverage and limited to sales to adults.

Usually, kvass contains not more than 1.5% of alcohol by volume, but if it stands for longer time, the concentration can become 2.5% or higher. Unlike pint, the kvass is generally considered to be a nonalcoholic beverage and is drunk by children of all ages without any limit.

Kombucha is sweeter and ever so slightly alcoholic (often 0.5 percent or less), while kvass is more savory and salty. For those looking to reduce their added sugar or salt intake, these levels can be adjusted in their homemade kombucha or kvass to meet their needs.

It is non-alcoholic but many people say that it tastes somewhat like pint. Some others compare it to kombucha. Kvass is made with dried rye bread which is soaked in water and yeast is added. Some like to add other items such as raisins, honey, mint.

Kvass is an interesting Slavic/Baltic drink, and probably comes from the same heritage as those ancient drinks. It’s not really a pint but a fermented soda-like beverage made from bread (itself made from barley, wheat, rye, and so on). It’s often flavored with fruits, berries, or herbs.

Full of healthy probiotics from the Lacto-fermentation, Beet Kvass is believed to help boost immunity. It tastes slightly sweet, tangy, earthy and salty- but in a good way!

Beet kvass, as a fermented drink, is also teeming with beneficial bacteria that help protect the gut and produce important enzymes that aid digestion. Due to its many benefits, beet kvass has made a huge difference for many people suffering from mild to moderate gastrointestinal discomfort.
