Serbian Brandy, it's high percent alcohol drink! It's so powerful that many strangers from all over the world when they try one of Rakia they start speaking on Serbian fluently.
Rakia is very cheap in Serbia so if you want to buy 1 liter of Rakia which is 36 shots, costs up to $5 !
Rakija can be made out of almost any fruit, and each fruit has its own specific Rakija name. Slivovica (plum rakija) is the most popular, as well as the cheapest and strongest. You can find Slivovica in every Slavic country, from the Czech Republic to Bulgaria, and each country claims the drink as its own.
For Serbians, Rakija means much more than just Slivovica, and if you know the right places, you can find yourself enjoying the pleasures of the most diverse kinds of rakija: apricot, peach, grape, fig, quince and even juniper. Each version has its own subtle and particular taste lying just beneath the initial strong flavor.
