Sahlab

Cultural Context

Sahlab is a traditional Middle Eastern drink, popular in Turkey and surrounding regions. Historically made from the tuber of the orchid, it has evolved into a comforting milk-based beverage thickened with sahlab powder. Often enjoyed during colder months, it is a symbol of warmth and hospitality. Today, variations exist across the Middle East, with toppings like nuts and spices enhancing its appeal.
