Kamruddin Drink

Kamruddin or A’amruddin as we pronounce it in Syria is an apricot juice or sun dried apricot paste made by squeezing hundreds of kilograms of apricot, mixing it with glucose syrup and spreading on giant trays to dry under the summer sun. The final product is a tangy apricot leather-like orange sheet. It was first produced in the Ghouta (suburb of Damascus) and Syria produces tonnes of Kamruddin every year with 90% of the production exported to other Arab countries. All of it to be consumed over the month of Ramadan.
