Meyan Şerbeti
Licorice Sherbet, or in Turkish, Meyan Şerbeti, which is an integral part of Gaziantep culture, is consumed especially in summer, on religiously important days and during Ramadan. This sherbet, which does not contain sweetening agents and consists of completely natural ingredients (licorice fibers, water, cinnamon powder, clove, and rose water), is made at home by some people of Antep, but it is often bought from sellers wandering the streets, wearing traditional clothes, and carrying a large “sherbet bag”. Sellers pour the licorice sherbet in the leather bottle on their backs into a bowl or glass and sell it. In order to attract customers and make them noticed, they rattle the two bowls they put on top of each other by hitting each other.
