CDarwin Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Very odd, off the wall question: Is kvas (Russian drink made from fermented dark bread) considered alcoholic in the United States, such that an underaged person couldn't consume it? Does anyone know? Apparently it's served in schools in Russia.
ecoli Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 I'm sure it would be. Alcohol is looked at completely differently in Russian culture.

ecoli Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 Oh, so you're question is about the percentage of alcohol content in a beverage before it becomes illegal for consumption? Vanilla extract contains alcohol and I dont think they card to buy that.
Gilded Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 As far as I know many western countries allow minors to drink beverages with alcohol contents below 1.5% or so, for example Finnish sima. I'm not sure what's the limit in the U.S.
