Anijsmelk

Anijsmelk is a Dutch drink, consisting of hot milk flavored with anise seed and sweetened with sugar. One traditional use takes place during ice skating.[1] The drink (which outside the Netherlands is consumed by expats in, for instance, Michigan[2][3] and South Africa[4]) can be made from scratch,[5] but more popular are tablets (made by the firm De Ruijter) containing the anise flavor and sugar, to which only hot milk needs to be added.[6] The tablets have been produced since at least the 19th century.[7]
