Zanzibar is not only known for its pristine beaches and renowned spice tour, it also has a few delicacies worth trying out. Ever heard of the famous “Zanzibar pizza” for instance (dough filled with meat, vegetables, eggs or sweet ingredients)? It’s yummy delicious! 
Today’s post isn’t about “pizza” though, but it is also a specialty found at the Night Market (Forodhani gardens, in Stone Town).
Nope, today’s about an “extra special” drink that I discovered back in the days: sugar cane juice.

- Sugarcane juice maker machine or press.
