    Tarhun's tarragon flavouring is very similar to vanilla. Like most carbonated beverages, it needs to be poured on ice to cut the excessive sugar.
    I bought it at Yummy Market and tried it a month ago.

      I love vanilla, so Tarhun must be awesome if tarragon is similar to vanilla.

    Kvas is a small-beer, where as "root beer" is imitation Sarsaparilla. Kvas tastes bready, and varying degrees of sweet and refreshingly tart.
    Buratino was a lemonade, much like western lemonade. Lemons were only available seasonally so production was limited.
    Baikal was actually a response to Coca-Cola. But the development team actually took time to find ingredients with health benefits. So Baikal doesn't taste like cola at all, but more like "Moxie", a herbal soft drink popular in Main. The health benefits are negligible, but it was promoted as a drink for sports and physical excertion.
    Tarhun is a bright green Georgian variant, being made primarily of Tarragon. I've never tasted it myself.

    I might be in the minority because I’m a student of Russian history, but I would love to see CrazyRussianDad do a video series where he talks about some important events in Soviet history maybe with some family anecdotes and stories peppered in. I’d kill to see CRD talk about Vysotsky or Novocherkassk riots or the difficulties of the 1990s for 10 minutes or so. Thumbs up if you agree!

      Russia(and some of the associated former soviet states) has some of the craziest history up until the 20th century, at which point it kinda turns into a rinse and repeat cycle. But Russia’s early history is fascinating and super fun to learn about.

    Oh yes! Now the Buryatina is NOT exactly my favourite, but I still drink the three others regularly. Tarkhun is SO good (and good for your tummy when it's upset). It's not like any other soda around - some people need to "acquire" the taste but it's just awesome. I'm always amazed to see how many brands make it now! Seems like every time I go to our Russian markets here there's a new one (and now in every size! SWEET!). Baykal is my "treat yourself" drink (my Olga says it's good with Rum but that may be an "acquired taste" lol). Kvaaaaaaassssssss... I buy it. I MAKE it. It's starting to show up even in non-Russian/Eastern European stores around here, and I'm noticing on YT that a lot of people are making it now... very cool. It's SO easy to make! Our family recipe uses a LOT more raisins than most because we like it sweeter - but I even have a few packets of the "starter kit" for times when I can't get out to get black or Pumpernickel bread LOL BUT I DON'T HAVE A KVAS PROBLEM! lol). It's not SODA, but adding the Torani-style fruit syrups to fizzy water makes a tremendous drink (housemate is Slovenian, we have a good 12 or 15 flavours of syrups just for fizzy water lol).

    Eat and drink like soviet not as easy as it sounds, been looking for stores in my neighborhood, one is called Bucarest, so Romanian I guess, the other is Krakow, so polish. But I got some smoked kolbasa, black bread, butter, smoked cheese and caviar and kvass, couldn't find the other drinks though. Pickle too but not with oak leaves. Everyone very nice to me but I really felt like tourist. And I found that kvass is acquired taste, and I find it's better while I eat. Oh and polish place had great saurkraut, home made.

  • @jonpilledsingledad
    @jonpilledsingledad Před měsícem +1

    Okay if you saw this and wanted to try soviet sodas heres a few things to know:
    1) Tarkhun is delicious but tarragon has alot of that "black liquorice" flavor that is damn near unpalatable to Americans.
    2)Buratino tastes like Duchess, which tastes like Inca Cola (honestly just generic cola flavor without dark colors)
    3) DO NOT buy mass produced Kvass, it tastes awful. If you're lucky your local Russian market will have "live kvass" which is actually pretty good but isnt even close to rootbeer.
    4) Baikal is very refreshing but theres Eucalyptus in it which gives it kind of a dry astringent quality which wont be that palatable to Americans either.
    Enjoy soviet snacks but keep in mind that these people have lived in a place of scarcity and under regimes where new ideas weren't embraced. Its good but not the same as what youd expect from similar things we eat here.

  • @kennycasey9940
    @kennycasey9940 Před měsícem

    I grew up during the first Russian/American Cold War and I must say, I would welcome more Russians immigrating to America. What an excellent way that would be to "wash off" the propaganda stink of the first Cold War.
    One more thing - the fur hat with the "I Voted" pin on the front - given the political climate in both America and Russia, it's kind of funny and I really want one! You should sell them in your channel store.
    I greatly enjoy your videos and I hope you keep posting as often as possible.
