It is a savoury drink, not a sweet juice: sip it rather than drink it like lemonade. If the heat is too much, cut it with a mild salgam rather than water, which flattens the flavour as well as the heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat Is Salgam?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSalgam is a fermented vegetable drink from southern Turkiye. It tastes salty and sour, a little like the brine from a jar of pickles, with an earthy note from the carrot. The deep purple colour comes from purple carrot, not from the turnip in the name.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ingredient list on this bottle shows how it is made: water, purple carrot, turnip and salt, with boiled and pounded wheat (bulgur) and yeast to start the ferment, and garlic and hot pepper for flavour. If you have never tried it, think of it as a drinkable pickle - and serve it very cold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFermented purple carrot and turnip drink\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeat\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHot - \u003cem\u003eacili\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eNet Volume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e33.8 fl oz (1 L)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eOrigin\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMade in Turkiye (Mersin) - Tarsus salgami\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStorage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKeep in a cool place away from sun and heat.
