The one I had was extremely tart (made with lots of lemon juice) and delicious. Very refreshing and really quenched the thirst. The mint added a wonderful flavor not to mention the apples and oranges which sank to the bottom of the glass after the beverage was consumed and required a spoon to finish. I have been looking for the recipe and finally found it in two places on line. When I was in Saudi Arabia in 2006 I had the honor to taste this drink.

I then decided that I had to read some more of your blog. It's beautiful... the photographs are amazing. Did you take them? Your site really makes me miss the Middle East. I live in Washington, DC and am originally from Maine, but I spent a semester in Amman and a week of it in Syria and I just wish I could be back in Amman doing all the things there I loved to do and going so many places one might just pass by every day.Anyway, nice blog.

First you make us hungry with the pop tart and caesar salad attack, and now you start in with the fizzy drinks. You into torture or something??? And why the hell do we only have water in this house?? (grumble, grumble, ignore me) I’m so thirsty! First you make us hungry with the pop tart and caesar salad attack, and now you start in with the fizzy drinks. You into torture or something???
