🍒 Cherry borsch — and yes, it is exactly what it sounds like.

Cooks in Poltava and Podillia have been making it this way for centuries. Sweet cherries give the beet broth a natural tartness that no vinegar or lemon can replicate. Just a handful of ripe cherries and the whole bowl changes.

This recipe uses a crockpot. 20 minutes of active cooking, 50 minutes on its own. By the time you set the table, dinner is ready.

Alright, guys, listen up! When the summer heat is absolutely kicking off, there is one thing—and I mean the absolute ultimate thing—that will completely blow your mind and cool you right down. We’re talking about a gorgeous, vibrant, super-fresh cold borsch okroshka! 🌿🇺🇦

Honestly, it’s a total game-changer. Imagine a beautiful bowl packed with crunchy cucumbers, peppery little radishes, perfectly boiled eggs, and a massive handful of freshly chopped dill. But here’s the real secret twist, the thing that makes it pure magic: we're bringing it all together with a cold, crisp birch sap kvass. It is unbelievably refreshing, tangy, and just ticks every single box for a scorching summer day. ☀️🥣

You’ve got to try this one, family. Trust me, it’s spectacular!

Now, I know everyone has their own family secrets when it comes to a proper cold borsch okroshka, so let’s settle the score in the comments below:

👍 **Hit LIKE** if you’re team Kefir instead of birch sap kvass!
❤️ **Drop a HEART** if you keep it purely veggie with no meat or sausage at all!
😮 **Leave a WOW** if you’re adding chunks of lovely boiled potato to the mix!

Stay strong, look after each other, and let's keep cooking beautiful food! Big love. 💪❤️✨

🍓 Strawberry season is here — and this is the only smoothie you need.

Fresh garden strawberries. Wild peppermint from the backyard. Two tablespoons of condensed milk. That's it.

No supermarket berries. No complicated steps. Just real summer in a glass — ready in 15 minutes.

In Ukraine, the smell of strawberries is the smell of summer holidays. Once you try homegrown berries in this smoothie, you'll never go back to store-bought.
