Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a tall glass, add water, date molasses, rose water and honey if using and give it a good stir
  • Fill with ice and top with pine nuts and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Slivered almonds are also traditional to top with instead of pine nuts.
  • A splash of pomegranate juice would be a delicious addition as well. 
  • f you are new to rose water, add a small amount at first, taste and add ¼ teaspoon more if you like a flavor. A little goes a long way.
  • You only need a few tablespoons per jallab drink. Taste and add more if you prefer.
  • Not traditional, but you can also top jallab with a splash fo sparkling water for added fizz.
