Apricot Tea - "Qamar al-Din"

Apricot kernel, also known as "Qamar al-Din" in Arabic, is made from dried apricot paste. This traditional Middle Eastern treat is not only delicious but also offers various health benefits. Apricot kernel is a good source of dietary fiber, potassium, and antioxidants, which may contribute to improved digestion, heart health, and overall well-being.

To make apricot kernel juice, start by soaking the dried apricot paste in water overnight. The next day, blend the softened paste with water and strain the mixture through a fine sieve or cheesecloth to extract the juice. You can then sweeten the juice to taste and serve it chilled.

Enjoying a glass of apricot kernel juice can be a refreshing and nutritious way to incorporate the benefits of this unique ingredient into your diet.
