Rozata

Rozata is a type of custard pudding made with a few basic ingredients — eggs, milk, and sugar, which are flavored with a local rose liqueur known as Rozalin. The creamy mixture is baked in caramel covered ramekins, and the process results in a custard that is generously covered with a sweet caramel topping. The dessert originates from the town of Dubrovnik where it has been prepared since the Middle Ages, but the simplicity of ingredients and the method of preparation is what helped in keeping this dessert unchanged for centuries. Due to the refreshing combination of lemon zest, rose liqueur, and caramel, rozata is a dessert that is best enjoyed on hot summer days.
