Herbal smash with kvass
1 serving
10 minutes
Herbal smash with kvass is a refreshing and aromatic cocktail that combines the warmth of herbal liqueur, the tartness of citrus, and the invigorating depth of kvass. This drink recalls old European recipes where traditional ingredients harmoniously blend together. Bright notes of orange and lemon intertwine with the light sweetness of sugar syrup, while bread kvass adds richness and a slight fermented tartness. It should be served with an icy frappe cap adorned with apple slices and orange zest – this gives the drink an elegant appearance and additional aroma. Herbal smash is perfect for summer relaxation, creating an atmosphere of freshness and laid-back enjoyment.
