What is Water with molasses?
Water with molasses is made by thinning pekmez, a traditional Turkish fruit molasses, with water. Grape pekmez is common, though versions made with mulberries or carob are also found. The syrup’s deep, fruity sweetness becomes lighter and more refreshing when diluted, and the drink is usually served chilled at home, especially in warm weather. It can accompany breakfast or be enjoyed on its own when you want something sweet to sip. Most of its energy comes from carbohydrates in the molasses, with virtually no fat. Start with a small spoonful of pekmez and add more to taste; extra water makes the drink less sweet.
