Ouzo (ούζο) is an anise-flavored aperitif that is widely consumed in Greece and Cyprus, and a symbol of Greek culture. Similar aperitifs include oghi (from Armenia and among Western Armenians), pastis (France), and arak (from the Levant). Its aniseed flavor is also similar to the anise-flavored liqueurs of sambuca (Italy) and patxaran (Spain) and the stronger spirits of absinthe (Switzerland). It is a variation of mastiha (mastika in Macedonia). It can be consumed neat or mixed with water.
