Ghostly Arak Shot - Scroll All The Way Down For Recipe!

This is a Lebanese liquor made from grapes and anise. It has a very strong black licorice flavor and is clear right from the bottle but when mixed with a splash of water or club soda, it turns a cloudy white!

It is a fun party trick to show guests and it also serves as a palate cleanser during a meal! The anise flavor clears the palate and is very tasty as just a shot.

Serve with a cube of dry ice for an extra smoky, spooky effect with this Arak shot.
