2 gallons or 8 qt of water
1 cup molasses
1.5-2 cups Honey, I used Organic Raw Honey
1 cup raisins
1 Tbsp. of dry yeast
Direction:
Fill large pot or container with 2 gallons of lukewarm water. Add rest of the ingredients and stir well until honey dissolves.
Cover with plastic or lid and let it stay at room temperature for 1.5-2 days stirring occasionally.
Scoop up the foam and raisins from the top. Using strainer pour kvass into bottles, cover with a lid and refrigerate for 6-8 hours or overnight. Kvass is best served chilled in hot weather
I used glass gallon bottles but plastic juice containers or soda bottles will work great.
