Okroshka is a summer vegetable soup with kvas instead of meat broth. This spicy, cold Russian soup was a favorite of the rebellious Crimean government. The Ukrainian equivalent is called kholodnyk and there is some debate as to which ingredients compose the quintessential okroshka. All agree that its tangy taste comes from kvas, the pungent drink made from ferrmented bread which serves as its base. Many lovers find inspiration in the combination of diced potatoes, meat, radish, cucumber, green onion, and boiled egg, with milk and hearty helpings of both kvas and fresh dill.
