post the best exotic drinks of your regions

[جوري]

I just learned from bro Imam the name of a famous drink my mom makes called karakade is called Roselle in English...



I am really interested in the drinks that are 'endemic' to your home town, which taste delicious..

Jazkoum Allah khyran

Ooh, my parents drink that, I love its color.

In Syria we have a drink called 'sharab al loz', which literally translates to 'the almond drink'; I absolutely love it.

Here's a blog post that describes it, and how to make it, if anyone is interested. (click the photo)



Oh, I just saw your post in the other thread; sa7lab!! Ramadan drink indeed. Last Ramadan, every day on the walk home from taraweeh, there was a man selling sa7lab right outside the masjid, I'd occasionally buy some... Ahh, good times.

can't mess with mango juice, not exactly from my region but probably most popular over here, the mangos are from india/pakistan

indian - usually try to avoid anythin indian, incase of cow extracts(you never know!)


pakistani - quite thick but still nice

[Güven]

in my hometown in Turkey, they have this famous drink called "Şalgam" (Turnip juice)



I love it

[$tranger]

thats THE DRINK - and it has to be in a GLASS bottle :X

[S_87]

a drink called 'mauby/mawbi' it is bitter in a weird way but tastes nice super cold on a hot day. i dont even know what it i, its bark from a tree or something





and my fave drink is called a 'fruti' drink, cant find a pic online but last time we brought a suitcase full of that back to england. and the time before. and probably next time

and i think for indian drinks- mango lassi which is yoghurt,mango juice, cream, sugar and cardamom

[Musaafirah]

Though Mango juice is THE best.

Strong yorkshire tea with sugar and milk, ay lad the stuff o champions

Take about a cup or so of sugar and throw in some iced tea. Southern Style Sweet Tea.

Pink Lemonade is pretty solid too.

[Layla454]

Ice tea tastes pretty nice. Theres lemon, peach and other kinds. Yumm

[Muezzin]

Pickings are pretty slim in the UK. On the other hand, you can find these cartons of fruity goodness down the supermarket. Once upon a time, the most exotic fruit in the whole of the British Isles were bananas.

I wonder if any countries consider potatoes exotic vegetables…

[Imam]

Nice idea for thread.sis Gossamer



drinks in Egypt are classified into hot or cold


Egyptians are addicted to to Tea winter or summer .... though I don't drink it....
the hot drinks include:

1-Tea



2- Fenugreek




3/Sahalab





3-Anise



4- Cinnamon






5-Caraway



6-Peppermint





the cold drinks


1-Karkade (though could be hot too)


2- 4-Liquorice





My favorite cold drink comes from the most delicious fruit Allah ever created (Mango)

but be careful... not all Mangos the same...

I tried the Brazilian and found it not tasty at all.....

The Egyptian Mango is the most delicious all over the world(lots of testimonies about that) and the indian pakistani too.........

My favorite hot drink is Sahlab !.....
