I bought some Syrian licorice to make this drink and really enjoyed it, but would not have thought to add the orange blossom water.

I am sorry I have not been by in a while. I sue my RSS feed to track updates and the last update I had for you was early July - I had thought life got in the way. So glad I checked.

tasteofbeirut: Thank you for stopping by!
Licorice is naturally sweet, it has two compounds:
Anethol: sweet tasting compound.
Glycyrrhizin: a compound sweeter than sugar.

I don’t think I have ever had this drink! I love the photo of the vendor, how exotic! I was surprised the drink does not contain any sugar.
