  Palouzes - Dessert made from Red Grape Juice Cypriot Palouzes, called Moustalevria in Greece, is made from the juice of freshly pressed tree-ripened red grapes. Eating is so intimate. It’s very sensual. When you invite someone to sit at your table and you want to cook for them, you’re inviting a person into your life. ~ Maya Angelou I have reproduced a recipe I found on this website Ingredients: 10 cups of Grape Juice ( mousto ) 10 tbsp of whole wheat flour or cornstarch 4-5 leaves of kiouli (arbaroriza aka Pelargonium or 'Citronella'  or Scented Geranium) for the aroma 1 branch of basil 1/5 tsp of mastic crushed powder 2 tbsp of rose water Roughly crushed almonds or walnuts as garnish Method: In three cups of mousto, dilute the flour and pour it through a fine strainer to collect whatever is not diluted. In a large pot pour the remaining mousto. Wash the basil and kiouli leaves well under running water. Add the kiouli leaves and the basil. Place it on the stove to heat up. W
