    Default Raki in your country



    "Raki is an unsweetened, often anise-flavoured, alcoholic drink that is popular in Turkey, Turkic countries, Albania, Greek Islands and in the Balkan countries as an apéritif." - Wikipedia

    Is Raki a traditional or widely enjoyed drink in your country? if not; have you ever tasted it?

    I heard it is called Rakija in some places.

    Ouzo is known as 'Greek raki' in Turkey.

    Personally I prefer beer and vodka because I'm not into the anise flavor. Turkish raki has anise. I hear they do Raki without anise in some other countries.

    Albanian raki is without anise. Greek ouzo has anise.

    I don't know anybody under the age of 40 that drinks it in Albania.

    I guess it is alcoholic drink like Rakija?

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rakia

    Rakija is Serbian national drink.
