  • Traditional drinks in Islamic countries?

    Just something I've been curious about.

    Many traditional societies didn't drink water all that much, before technology existed to deliver safe tap water. In China they brewed tea, Mediterranian countries had wine, and much of Europe had beer, but I know many Moslems don't drink alchohol, and I don't get the impression that tea was popular in the Middle East, either (though I could be wrong on that). So, what did people traditionally drink in Arab and other Islamic countries?
