    Histrically borshch probably was a name for anything that was more or less drinkable and non-alcoholic, there were no original recipe, like there is no original recipe for other common dishes, they were just made with whatever was available and whatever people ate at the time.

    Personally I really dislike kvass based borshch, like it’s vile. 😄
