Žinčica (in Slovak) or Żentyca (in Polish)[1] is a drink made of sheep milk whey similar to kefir.[2] It is a by-product in the process of making Bryndza cheese.[2]

Žinčica is fermented by the following Lactic acid bacteria: Lactobacillus casei, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactococcus lactis and Leuconostoc mesenteroides.[2]

Traditionally, this drink is served in a črpák, a wooden cup with some pastoral scene carved into the handle.[3][4]

Bryndzové halušky is typically served with žinčica.[5]

The origin of the word is the Romanian jîntiţa, the drink being carried by the Vlach shepherds instead of water.[citation needed]
