We’ve just got this drink from my boyfriend’s coworker. Just tasted it, is this for children? Or how do you suposed to drink this, just from the bottle?
I’ve been in Kukes, Albania once and tasted kind of the same thing, it tastes weird for sure.
I’m from Hungary btw. Thanks guys!

This thing is called boza/боза and it’s a very famous drink here in Bulgaria. You can combine it with banitsa/баница for the perfect morning breakfast
It’s an acquired taste, I personally don’t really like it. But yess many bulgarians love it and drink it often.
I see the small black text bellow says “with sweeteners”. That one is trash, you should buy the one with real sugar. Tastes way better.
Bulgarian chocolate milk
I once offered it to a german girl.
When she smelled she said “That’s nice” but upon drinking it was shocked that it is sweet. It smelled to her like something salty.
I guess it is a very weird/specific taste that we get accustomed to while we are kids, because no foreigner likes this. Maybe what adds is that by the looks of it, your mind expects something cocoa-like , but you get a sweet/sour weird taste.
Not all of us, personally i would rather skin myself alive with a rusty butter knife than ever let a drop past my lips but some people love it
The taste varies and not every boza is good.
I don’t drink it often, but sometimes I get the taste for it and it is quite nice.
Real bosa is with sugar, not sweeteners.
While I drank it as a child, I’m not a huge fan. Now I don’t drink it at all as it is too easy to gain weight drinking it.
Its sewage water, some people drink it in the morning 🌅
