Sobia. The OTHER white drink!
Sobia: A thirst-quenching Ramadan drink
“..did not comply with basic health and hygiene standards..”

Impossible!
What is it? And what kinds of “bags” is it sold in? Is it a powder that you mix with water yourself? A bad doesn’t seem like the greatest packaging for a liquid.
“Sobia needed a special preparation to make it taste good. It needs ingredients including barley, brown bread, cinnamon, sugar, and cardamom. “Brown bread and barley should be soaked in a large pot for a whole day with enough water to cover it. Then the mixture should be boiled, adding some cinnamon and cardamom and leave it soaked for another day,” she said. “After that, the mixture should be filtered, separating the water from the bread and adding sugar to it,” she added.
“The drink should be served cold and you can add ice as needed,”
Sounds to me you could just go out and drink the stuff that collects in the bottom of the garbage can and have the same thing.
“it helps relax and calm the nerves”
I-slam code-speak for “it whips our anger to a homicidal, fever pitch”.
I hope so.
I'm pretty sure they ain't chugging camel piss just for the taste.
It looks like something that’s made in Michelle Obama’s shoes.
What a flavor it must have.
Musty mystique.
This is not a beverage for drinking, this is a beverage for laying down and avoiding!
Funny, I didn’t know that camel piss came in different colors.
For Ramadan, I drink Budweiser and chew qat.
Which way is Mecca again?

Stay thirsty my friends.
I love new recipes, so I had to look-however-not only does the combination of ingredients sound pretty awful, but I’ll hazard a guess that what is so appealing about the stuff is that it at least partially ferments to give the drinker a cheap buzz...
I’ll stick with homemade beer and wine, thanks...
If I have to brew the drink, I’ll brew beer soda or coffee.
