Dawa - Kenya

A Dawa cocktail is a popular drink originating from Kenya that translates to "medicine" in Swahili.

The cocktail is traditionally served in a glass with a wooden muddler that is used to mix the ingredients together, allowing the drinker to adjust the sweetness to their liking. The Dawa cocktail is not only a treat for the taste buds but also a cultural experience that embodies the spirit of socializing and relaxation.
