Raki with Water turns cloudy because water makes the anise oils in raki come out of solution and form tiny droplets. This natural milky effect is often called the louche; it does not mean the drink has spoiled.
To make Raki with Water, pour raki into a glass and add cold water. Add the raki first and the water second; you can stir gently or let the cloudy layers form on their own.
There is no single required ratio for Raki with Water; equal parts raki and water are a common starting point. Add more water for a lighter-tasting drink and adjust the proportions to your preference.
Add ice to Raki with Water after pouring in the raki and water. Ice can also be added to the raki first, but very cold temperatures may mute its anise aroma, and melting ice will dilute the drink further.
Cold still drinking water works best in Raki with Water. It chills the drink and helps produce the characteristic cloudy appearance; sparkling water changes the texture and may make the anise flavor seem less clear.
Raki with Water has a lower alcohol concentration per sip than neat raki, but adding water does not remove any of the alcohol in the raki you poured. The total alcohol depends on the amount of raki used.
Raki with Water is commonly served with meze, fish, white cheese, and melon. Turkish tables may also include olives, grilled vegetables, and cold seafood dishes, which pair well with the drink’s anise flavor.
Raki with Water is commonly enjoyed alongside a meal rather than as a drink to have quickly before or after eating. In Turkey, it is often sipped slowly with meze and a shared dinner.
It is better to prepare Raki with Water just before serving. If it sits, melting ice can dilute it and the anise aroma may fade; keep the raki and water separate until you are ready to pour.
Yes, the alcohol in Raki with Water can disrupt sleep, even if it initially makes you feel drowsy. Water dilutes the drink but does not cancel alcohol’s effects, so drinking it close to bedtime may make sleep less restful.

Raki with Water is Turkish rakı, an anise-flavoured spirit diluted with water. The water often makes the drink turn pale and cloudy, and the proportion can be adjusted to taste.
In Turkey, it is typically sipped slowly with meze over a long meal or conversation. Water softens the anise flavour, while dishes such as cheese, melon and vegetable meze make familiar accompaniments. Its energy comes mainly from alcohol; a 100 g serving provides 110 calories. Adding more water makes the drink milder in flavour, but does not reduce the amount of alcohol in the serving.
