Cold beet soup

Cold beet soup is a cold summer soup found in the cuisines of Belarus, Lithuania, Latvia, Poland and Ukraine. It is historically associated with the culinary traditions of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the later Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, where cold sour soups were eaten across the entire social spectrum, from nobility to peasants. The related Russian svekolnik is commonly made with bread or beetroot kvass.
