Within a week of reading an article about the Dawa cocktail, I was pleasantly surprised to find it on the cocktail menu at the Laurel Court Bar in the Fairmont Hotel in San Francisco. The Dawa cocktail with vodka, brown sugar and lime is reportedly the most popular cocktail in Kenya. Dawa means "medicine" or "magic potion" in Swahili. Do the medicinal qualities come from the lime, vodka, brown sugar or a combination of all three? There are several variations of this cocktail which I'll try at home (mainly crushed ice and honey instead of brown sugar).
