Rakija, a traditional fruit brandy, is a hallmark of Balkan cuisine with deep cultural roots in countries such as Serbia, Croatia, and Bosnia. It is typically crafted from fermented fruits like plums, apricots, pears, or grapes, yielding a potent alcoholic drink with an average alcohol content between 40-50%. Natural sugars from the fruits contribute to its flavor, while its production often involves no added sugar or artificial ingredients. Nutritionally, Rakija contains calories primarily from alcohol, offering little to no vitamins or minerals. Moderate consumption may improve circulation and digestion, as traditionally believed in the Balkans, but excessive intake poses significant health risks, including liver damage and addiction. While it offers cultural and social value, Rakija should always be enjoyed responsibly within a balanced lifestyle.
