Uzvar is the drink that warmed our ancestors during winter evenings and has now become a part of many Ukrainian festive rituals. Its pleasant amber color and delicate taste make it the perfect companion to Christmas kutia. The secrets of a rich uzvar flavor lie in the correct balance of dried fruits: apples, pears, prunes, dried apricots, and naturally, raisins. Do not forget about honey, which adds not only sweetness but also additional beneficial properties. This drink can always be adapted to your preferences by adding citrus notes of orange or lemon, or perhaps a touch of spice from cloves and cinnamon. Remember that infused uzvar is much tastier, so do not skimp on time for preparation in advance!
