Traditionally enjoyed during hot seasons and special occasions, this beverage is celebrated for its vibrant color and tart flavor. It symbolizes hospitality and is often served at gatherings. Today, Rangha Bisab has gained popularity beyond Gambian borders, enjoyed in various forms across West Africa and beyond, often adapted with local flavors.
