Cool and barely carbonated, it easily quenches thirst and even hunger, without causing any discomfort in the stomach and intoxication.

Classic oats kvass can be prepared with only two ingredients.
Ingredients:

Flakes pour cold, boiled water, add sugar and bandage the neck of the jar with two layers of gauze.
