Algeria is country well known for the production of some good wines, even though not many of them are served around the country. Being a Muslim majority population, Algerians prefer non-alcoholic drinks instead of wines. Still, some of the greatest wines produced in Algeria are the Medea, Mansourah and mascara as red wines, and Lismara as a rose white wine. Citrus brinks and fruit beverages are commonly served in local dinners in all regions, as well as syrups made of watermelon, apricots, pomegranate, tamarind, mint and almonds. Fruit punches and cocktails are easily prepared on the spot, as well as fresh squeezed orange juice. Other Algerian beverages include herb teas, tisanes, coffee (sometimes very sweet called Turkish coffee), and almond and sesame milk. Yogurts and kefirs are often consumed as beverages, and flavored milk shakes, such as banana shakes or chocolate coconut milk-shake are a delicacy served sometimes as desserts after meals.
