Not only the food, but Turkish’s beverages are worth trying. The delicacies you can’t find anywhere in the world. At first, you may frown upon learning the ingredients, but you will find a whole new experience when you taste them.
1. Fresh Pomegranate Juice 
Turkey is one of the world’s largest producers of pomegranate so you’ll find fresh juice stands everywhere. They were particularly ubiquitous in Selcuk and made for a refreshing drink after visiting the Ephesus ruins.
2. Salep 
Salep is an interesting Turkish drink. It refers to both the drink and the flour used to make it. Salep flour is made from orchid tubers containing a nutritious, starchy polysaccharide called glucomannan. Dusted with cinnamon and enjoyed as a dessert beverage, the salep drink is sweet and intensely rich with a unique, somewhat floral flavor. It was almost like drinking a milky, watered down porridge infused with orchid. We tried salep in Sirince, a rural hill town near Selcuk, but many places offer salep in winter. It’s usually served piping hot so be careful when you drink it. Source: willflyforfood.net
