The word dawa is Swahili for medicine and after sampling the drink — a strong mixture of vodka, lime juice and honey — I can see it’s been appropriately named. The Dawa first made a name for itself in Kenya, where it’s as popular in Nairobi as it is on safari as a sundowner cocktail. Since Tanzania borders Kenya, the drink is equally popular there.
