Beverages


Palestine's bountiful fruit production presents visitors with a wealth of refreshing and locally-sourced juices available from street vendors across the country. Whether it's the tangy lemonade of Jericho, the vibrant pomegranate juice of Nablus, the invigorating carrot juice of Bethlehem, the licorice-tinged souss of Jerusalem, the robust grape juice of Hebron, or the creamy almond juice of Ramallah, each city offers its own distinct and delightful nectar.

Beyond the abundant juices, Palestine also boasts a thriving alcoholic beverage culture, with three principal products: Arak, an anise-flavored spirit consumed during special occasions and celebrations; wine, with some of the finest vineyards located in the hilltops around Ramallah and Bethlehem; and beer, produced by the sole brewery in the region, situated in the town of Taybeh.

Whether seeking out refreshing juices or savoring artisanal alcoholic offerings, visitors to Palestine will find a vibrant and diverse culinary landscape that both reflects and celebrates the country's rich cultural heritage.
