<P> In Saudi Arabia, where alcohol is prohibited, black - market alcohol, typically distilled from fermented sugar water, is mostly known as "Aragh" ("عرق" in Arabic).' Sidiki' or' sid' are also commonly recognized terms .' Sid' is often produced by fermenting fruit juice and sugar, after distillation it is commonly cut 2--3 parts water: 1 part' Sid' . American soldiers, in the American military bases, and South Korean workers in Saudi Arabia create improvised moonshines from water, fruits (lemons and oranges), and yeast . </P> <P> Illicitly produced whisky from Scotland is called peatreek . The term refers to the smoke (or reek) infused in the drink by drying the malted barley over a peat fire . "Peat Reek" is also the brand name of a legal, commercially available whisky . </P> <P> Production of spirits in Scotland requires the relevant excise licences, as in the rest of the UK . </P> <P> Many types of moonshine are produced in Serbia, even though they are almost exclusively fruit - based, made in pot - stills and commonly referred to as rakija . Šljivovica (plum brandy) is the most popular, but brandies based on other fruits, such as breskovača (peach brandy), kajsijevača or kajsijara (apricot brandy), viljamovka (pear brandy) and jabukovača (apple brandy). Product quality can range from poorly produced low ABV brlja (cheap raw brandy) to oak barrel aged fine quality rakija that is superior to the bulk of the commercial market . Rakija is readily available on open markets even in the big cities, so finding a producer of quality product is the only real challenge in the process . There has been a scarcity of reports on poisoning, which indicates a high level of product safety derived from a long tradition . While most of it is produced in the farming regions (central and north), moonshine is being produced throughout the country and one would be hard - pressed to find a village without at least one pot still . Rakija is not commonly used for mixing with any other drinks as it is considered a fine beverage on its own, but some people have been known to drink beton (literally translated as concrete), which is a shot - glass of low quality šljivovica dropped into a glass of beer . </P>
