Sahlab is a popular hot drink in Dubai, especially during the winter months. It is a creamy and comforting beverage made from a mixture of milk, orchid root powder, sugar, and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon. The drink is thickened to a pudding-like consistency and has a rich and velvety texture. Sahlab is often garnished with crushed pistachios or coconut flakes for added flavor and crunch. It is a perfect drink to warm up on a chilly day and is often enjoyed with traditional Middle Eastern pastries like maamoul or qatayef.
