My absolutely favorite cold beetroot soup for hot summer! Tried it in Lithuania on my vacation few years back and it was love at first sip. It is called Šaltibarščiai (sorry if I misspelled something I'm not Lithuanian:)). It's fantastic!

As a a died in the wool Lithuanian through band through it gave me a warm feeling seeing this on Lemmy as the Lithuanian subs are not yet populated so this has been a glaring hole in my feed.
For anyone interested there is a winter version simply called ‘Barščiai’ which is also amazing.
Skanaus!
Also big in Poland. The winter version is called “chłodnik litewski” — literally “lithuanian cooler”. And yeah it’s basically cold borszcz.
Ukraine too! My Ukrainian grandfather made it.
I was going to say, that looks like a crazy borszcz.
Konsume cool beet root soup in summer, enjoy side of potat. Awake in gulag, potat is lie, such is lyfe.
