1. Ouzo

Sweet and aniseed flavoured, ouzo turns a milky white when water is added. An acquired taste.
2. Zivania

Brace yourself for this fiery, grappa -style spirit. Not to be consumed in quantity.
3. Brandy

Drunk on its own or in a variety of cocktails. The brandy sour is the island’s own cocktail and very palatable.
4. Wine

Red and white wines from Cyprus are generally unpretentious, quaffable and cheap, and quality continues to improve.
5. Filfar

This sticky-sweet liqueur, distilled from Cyprus oranges, is best enjoyed with coffee.
6. Mosphilo

Unique to Cyprus, mosphilo is a sweet-sour liqueur distilled from the red berries of the hawthorn tree.
7. Beers

Brewed in Cyprus are KEO, Carlsberg and Five Beer, plus Leon – first produced in 1937 and recently reintroduced. Most foreign beers are also available everywhere.
8. Coffee

Starbucks and Costa Coffee are here, but you should also try ellinikos kafes , served in a tiny cup and thick with sugar and caffeine.
9. Cocktails

From the brandy sour to the saucy Sex on the Beach, Cypriot bars offer an extensive cocktail list.
10. Soft Drinks

All the big-brand soft drinks, plus convincing local imitations, are available.
