Kompot

Kompot is a sweet drink made from fruits and water that is very popular in many countries. It's like a fruity tea that you drink cold instead of hot.

To make kompot, you start with fresh or canned fruits that are cut into small pieces. Then you put the fruit in a big pot of water and simmer it for a while until the fruit gets soft and starts to release its flavor and juices. You can add some sugar or honey if you want it to be sweeter.

After simmering for a while, you let the kompot cool down and strain it to remove any pieces of fruit or other bits that you don't want to drink. Then you can serve it cold, with some ice if you like.

Kompot can be made with all kinds of fruits, depending on what you like or what's in season. Some common fruits used in kompot are apples, pears, plums, berries, cherries, and peaches.

Kompot is a tasty way to enjoy the flavors of fresh fruit, especially in the summertime when it's hot outside and you want something refreshing to drink.
