Favorite Drinks Made From Bananas and

beverage. which IS strongly intoxicat-
ing. This wine or beverage is called
.smuenge." II ii is filed into bottles
and they are kept well corked at a cool
place for several months, one obtains
a sparkling wine, strongly resembling
champagne.
Mubisi. the principal beverage made
from bananas, can be changed in yet
another way If a larger or smaller
quantity OF boiled miIiet is added TO
il and the mixture IS left standing in
large earthen pots for two or three
days and stirred from time to time, it
becomes a beer. which, according TO the
quantity of miIlet added, is more or
less intoxicating.
The beverages made from bananas
are NOT stored away for long time
They are mostly consumed soon after
manufacture. When being sold they
commonly are comparatively dear.
This wine or beer is either drunk from
gourd cups or sucked from gourd bot
ties by means of long, nicely made
tubuies the lower ends of which are
serving, at the same time, for filtering
the turbid fluid.
Although many other preparations
form acceptable drinks lin Africa,
these are the favorite beverages; and
they are prepared and used in much
the same manner today as when the
native Africans originally discovered
their cooling and refreshing properties.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1908-04-19

Our increasing interest in Africa and
African doings during the progress Of
the war, has brought II notice many
peculiar customs of the natives. Even
their food and drinks, and their
methods of preparing, prove Of interest,
especially the methods usea by natives
in the long ago, before either the Beers
or the English laid claim to extensive
. territories.
I The original African beverages prob
~abIy interested the early settlers in this
xountry even more than their peculiar
= food preparations, as their favorite
drinks, especially that made from the
banana. is still valued highly by the
settlers and the property nolders OF to-
day. Although the Africans make a
form of WI lie and beer, neither grape
Juice is used for the former nor malt
extract for the latter. Palm trees Of
different kinds, bananas and millet fur
uish the raw materials Palm wine IS
made from the sap oozing from the cut
off blossom stems of the oily palm tree
and of the cocoa tree. It is pleasant,
refreshing beverage and sufficiently
known.
From the fruit of the banana tree
beverage is being made in Africa, which
they drink there as wine or beer. Ba-
mana beer is chiefly used by the natives
of Uganda, country bordering on
Lake Victoria. The people there are
very fond of such beer, and when Emin
Pasha went to Rubaga to meet King
hi
a real beer trip; from village to village,
or rather from beer pot to beer pot,
we are marching on" In this country
the manufacture Of the banana bever-
age is extensively going on. DR..
FeIkin. an English physician, who
formerly lived there, describes the dif-
ferent kinds of the banana beverage.
He makes distinction between ba-
mana beer and banana wine.
! According TO his description, Inu-
bisi.'' a cooling banana wine. is manu-
featured in the following manner: A
big hole is dug in the ground. lined by
banana leaves, filed with unripe ba-
nanas and kept covered by mats and
earth until the fruit has become COM
pletely ripe. Then the bananas are
slit. mixed with fine hay and placed
into aslarge, bGat-like, wooden trough,
which at one end has an emptying pipe.
After the addition of some water, the
whole is thoroughly mixed by the hand
or by short wooden sticks. Thereupon
the trough is covered with banana
leaves and the mixture is left standing
for about one or two hours. After the
expiration of that time it is taken out
and through grass sleeves poured into
large Gala bashes. 1t is then ready for
use and represents a sweet, agreeable
and not Intoxicating beverage. The
fact that just this kind Of the banana
beverage is drunk in large quantities
by the natives, explains why Ernin
Pasha did not see many drunken men
in Uganda and Unjoro.
But if the mubisi is left standing for
three days, it undergoes a fermentation
and becomes a slightly acid. refreshing
