'''Kompot''' or '''compot''', as prepared in Central and Eastern Europe and West Asia, refers to boiled fruits (typically fresh or dried) served either as a drink or a dessert depending on the region.  When served as a dessert, it is essentially identical to the French ''[[compote]],'' which is where the term "kompot" originates from.  When served as a drink, it is also known as '''vzvar''' (взвар) or '''uzvar''' (узвар), from a Slavic root word meaning "to boil".
