Arak is one of the oldest spirits in the world, and it's known for its anise flavor. While it can mean different things in different places (like cane-based drinks in Indonesia), the kind we’re talking about here is the anise-flavored version from the Levant and Middle East. It's like the stronger cousin of sambuca, ouzo, and pastis—sometimes called the “Milk of Lions” because it turns cloudy white when mixed with water.
Ramallah Distilleries makes a top-tier Palestinian arak, known for being one of the best outside of Lebanon. Family-owned since 1919, this was the first arak to be imported to the U.S. It’s strong too!
