Friend Zone: A Zero-Proof Strawberry Drink
imbibemagazine.com
Little Saint's strawberry drink may be zero-proof and zero-waste, but it's 100-percent flavor made from a bright and tangy fermented beverage.

I fucking love the zero waste ideas, kvass, tepache, the orgeat from avocado pits. Funny that the drink doesn’t seem to use the strawberry syrup that gave her the idea in the first place, and I don’t think you would need to throw out the tops for kvass, they can go in.

Definitely gonna set this up for July.

Also I have no idea how this got cross posted to the same community it’s in, or how to undo that, I only see one instance of it when I look at the community but there are two comment threads! My apologies!

      Yeah I had the same thought, and why not put them in the kvass? They could only help it!

      It’s not like you have to do much to it though. I make tepache and ginger beer a lot, once it’s mixed i just stir twice a day until it’s bubbly. And it’s so good!

    I did end up making this. The kvass is a lot sweeter than my usual tepache, but the drink once mixed is delicious even though sweet and does hit the spot as a non alcoholic cocktail.

    I did put the strawberry tops in the kvass, and it fermented in 4 days but remains quite sweet.
