Questions

What is Kompot?

Kompot is a Ukrainian dried fruit drink made by simmering dried apples, pears, and prunes with sugar, then chilling it. Families serve it cold in summer and warm through the holidays. Plan ahead: chill for at least 4 hours. This reference files it under Ukrainian non-alcoholic drink: made on the stovetop, rated easy and about 40 minutes start to finish.

Can I batch Kompot for a group?

Yes. As written it serves 8. Halved, the dried apples drops from 1 cup to 1/2 cup; doubled, it is 2 cups. Every line in this entry carries its half and double quantity, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. To make a pitcher, multiply everything and stir over ice at the end.
