Step back in time with a sip of history! 🍸✨ Our 15th Century Ottoman Empire Cocktail called the “SHARBAT” or “SHERBET” combines exotic flavors and a touch of history. We made ours the old fashion way but here’s how you can make yours at home.
Ingredients:
- 4-5 cloves
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tbsp honey
- Peel of 1 lemon
- Peel of 1 apple
- Peel of 1 orange
- 2 cups water
- 1 oz fresh lemon juice
- 2 oz vodka (optional for a boozy version)
- Sparkling water (to top off)
- Ice cubes
**Garnish:**
- Lemon and orange twist
- Fresh mint sprig (optional)
**Instructions:**
1. **Make the Turkish Sherbet Base:**
- In a medium saucepan, combine the cloves, sugar, honey, lemon peel, apple peel, and orange peel.
- Add 2 cups of water and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.
- Remove from heat, let it cool, then strain the liquid to remove the peels and cloves.
2. **Build the Cocktail:**
- Fill a glass with ice.
