Alcoholic Beverges of Zambia

Zambians traditionally enjoy relaxing with family and friends after the day’s work. This usually takes place at an Insaka, a thatched open sided structure where the days problems and joys are shared amid plenty of traditional beverages, alcoholic and non alcoholic going round. However, the modern urban Zambian usually troops to his favorite watering hole for his favorite bottled beverage.
