Rye Kvass

Rye Kvass is a traditional Eastern European lightly fermented beverage made from rye bread and water, served as a refreshing low-alcohol or non-alcoholic drink in many households and markets. It is very low in energy at 27kcal per 100g and is usually consumed for its refreshing, slightly tangy flavor rather than as a source of calories or macronutrients. Nutrition-wise, Rye Kvass provides minimal protein and little fiber, and may contain small amounts of B vitamins and trace minerals from the rye and fermentation process; sugar content can vary by recipe. As a fermented drink, it can be a useful low-calorie alternative to sugary sodas and, when unpasteurized, may contribute some live cultures, but it should not be relied on for substantial fiber, protein or micronutrient intake.
