Collection: ARAK

Arak is a distilled alcoholic drink favoured in the Middle East. Commonly served in social settings and gatherings, the glass is famous for its potency and for the translucent milky-white colour it turns when water is added to it. Arak has an exceptionally high alcohol content, so water and ice are almost always added to dilute it. The drink's strength was responsible for its nickname, "the milk of lions", in the Middle East.
