Raki
This spirit dates all the way back to Ancient times? Evidence of it has been found in ancient pottery from the Minoan and Mycenaean civilizations. It seems that they enjoyed a beverage similar to Raki with their meals and was also made from grapes. During the Turkish occupation of Greece, particularly on Crete, the Turks began calling the local spirit Raki because it was similar to their own version of this beverage. However, Turkish Raki is flavored with anise and Greek Raki is has a clear, clean taste, also known as Ouzo.
If you don’t like the taste of pure Raki, you can always drink Rakomelo, which is traditional Raki that has been mixed with honey. Though distillers often mix the honey into the Raki before bottling, you can also make it yourself with plain Raki. All you need to do is mix two cups of Raki with three tablespoons honey in a saucepan and gently heat until the honey is melted. Serve hot or chilled…
