The classic soup is a mix of mostly raw vegetables (like [[cucumbers]], radishes and [[spring onions]]), boiled potatoes, eggs, cooked meat such as beef, veal, sausages or ham and [[kvass]], which is a low-alcoholic (1.5% or less) beverage made from fermented black or [[rye bread]]. Okroshka is usually garnished with [[sour cream]] ([[smetana (dairy product)|smetana]]). Later versions that first appeared in Soviet times use light or diluted [[kefir]], [[whey]], [[ayran]], or mineral water instead of kvass.
