Sharab al-hisrm

Sharab al-hisrm is a traditional Middle Eastern drink made from unripe, sour grape juice. The word "hisrm" (or "housroom") refers to the juice of unripe, green grapes, which is highly acidic and tart. This juice is often used as a souring agent in cooking, similar to vinegar or lemon juice.

In its beverage form, sharab al-hisrm is typically sweetened with sugar or honey to balance the acidity and may be flavored with mint or other herbs. The result is a refreshing, tangy drink that is often enjoyed chilled, particularly in the summer months.
