Sachlab

This is a Middle Eastern drink that I discovered on my trip to Israel. After a quick search on the internet, I discovered that everyone said that Sachlab could only be made with a store-bought mix. I refused to believe that....so I made my own recipe. And y'know what?? It's GREAT! I'd say it's about 93% authentic...I'll have to keep tweaking it to get it 100% right. DO NOT omit the orange flower water...this is really an essential flavor. You can purchase orange flower water (Mazaar) from any middle eastern grocery store. Enjoy!

SERVES 2 , 2 small mugs (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat the milk and vanilla extract in a pot on the stove. As milk heats, whisk in the corn starch and make sure there are no clumps.
  2. 2
    Add in sugar and orange flower water (mazaar).
  3. 3
    As the mixture gets hot, it will thicken immensely. This drink is meant to be very thick. Use the water to thin it out a bit, if necessary, but it should really have the consistency of light yoghurt.
  4. 4
    Once the misture is thick and hot, add the package of splenda or sweetner if necessary, stir and then pour it into one large or two small mugs.
  5. 5
    Divide the almonds, pishtachios, coconut, raisins and cinammon between the two mugs. Do not stir.
  6. 6
    You are supposed to stir the drink yourself once it is served.
  7. 7
    Enjoy!
