Erin, here's a possibility for the bastani ice cream....

Actually, I have sahlab in my pantry. smileys/smile.gif I used to drink it in Israel (where it's "sachlev")!

Thanks for the link! Now I just have to convince friends with an ice-cream maker to come visit. smileys/wink.gif

 
Did someone say Sahlab!

That stuff is addictive!!! I was like Pavlov's dog when the sahlab street vendors in Istanbul would pass with their mezmerizing chant of "Sahlab". I had to get my fix every night when they came out onto the streets. Thankfully, there is a middle eastern shop in Findlay Market that sells an imported mix. Not that I get to drink it that often, but for special occasions, it's there. Makes a great holidays drink.
