The posh Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi, Grand Canal now has its very own in-house mixologist to shake things up. His specialty? Camel milk concoctions.
Mohammad Daoud experimented with locally-sourced camel milk — an increasingly mainstream dairy alternative — and fresh ingredients to craft milkshakes in flavors like strawberry and mint.
"I wanted to create something special for the upcoming Holy Month of Ramadan," he said in a press release. "Because camel milk has a high level of protein and additional nutrients, it's an excellent beverage to consume during Sohour, the meal taken prior to sunrise for Muslims fasting during Ramadan."
The drinks stay on the menu at the hotel's contemporary Arabic restaurant, Mijana, after Ramadan.
