This is too sweet for me, but so beautiful. I thought the kvass was more dry than it actually was.

Something simple for Sunday.

2 oz rye

1 oz strawberry syrup

1.5 oz lemon juice (started with 1 but adjusted)

3 oz strawberry kvass (strawberry tepache for those of us in the new world)

Notes:

If you don’t have the kvass/tepache, sub with 2oz fruity soda, 1 oz tonic water. If you don’t have strawberry syrup, thin jam with hot water. The homemade ingredients aren’t necessary I just had them on hand because I am a fermentation geek.

It would have been better with some sort of Amaro or bitter stuff and less syrup, will fuss with it next week. Maybe a splash of Campari next time.
