Thinking about the summer drink of eaan (kvas) immediately makes me think of another traditional Russian summery dish, eenaeu (kisel, fruit jelly). It's no wonder my synapses made the leap. In Russian, eaaneou (to pickle or ferment) is more or less in the same kitchen category as eenioou (to sour).
This might surprise you when you are served kisel today, which is not tart and not made through any process of fermentation. Kisel is usually a sweet fruit or berry jelly thickened with potato starch to the consistency of a thin pudding.
Americans: Think of Jell-O before it sets.
