Cut the stale rye bread and dry it in the oven.Put the crackers in a glass or enameled container and pour 6-7 liters of boiling water. Leave in this form for 4-5 hours.
Strain, add yeast, sugar, mint diluted with cooled wort and leave to ferment. The beginning of active foaming is a sign of the beginning of the next stage of preparation.
Filter again. We pour into bottles, adding a few raisins to each. We leave it in this state for a couple of hours, and then we put it in a cold place for 3-4 days.
Mint in white kvass can be replaced with grated horseradish, especially if you plan to use it in okroshka.
