Word entry · Emirati / Gulf
Camel milk.
· n. · Emirati / Gulffooddrink
"A Gulf staple — now in every supermarket, often flavoured with dates or saffron."

Lower in fat and higher in vitamin C than cow's milk, slightly salty, with a long history as Bedouin sustenance. In Dubai it's thoroughly commercial: brands like Camelicious sell it plain, flavoured (date, saffron, chocolate), and even as ice cream and chocolate.

A genuine bridge between the heritage story and the modern shelf. Worth trying once, at least in chocolate form.
