The ouzo effect during the preparation of absinthe. The ouzo effect (/ ˈ uː z oʊ / OO-zoh), also known as the louche effect (/ l uː ʃ / LOOSH) and spontaneous emulsification, is the phenomenon of formation of a milky oil-in-water emulsion when water is added to ouzo and other anise-flavored liqueurs and spirits, such as pastis, rakı, arak, sambuca and absinthe.
It is comparable to Balkan Rakia and several other anise-flavored liqueurs such as pastis, ouzo, sambuca, arak and aguardiente. The alcoholic content of raki must be at least 40% according to Turkish standard. [3] The largest producer of raki is Diageo; Yeni Rakı is the largest brand. [4]
The first ouzo distillery was founded in Tyrnavos in 1856 by Nikolaos Katsaros, giving birth to the famous ouzo Tyrnavou. When absinthe fell into disfavor in the early 20th century, ouzo was one of the products whose popularity rose to fill the gap; it was once called "a substitute for absinthe without the wormwood ".

Sambuca (Italian: [samˈbuːka]) is an Italian anise-flavoured liqueur. Its most common variety is often referred to as "white sambuca" to differentiate it from other varieties that are deep blue ("black sambuca") or bright red ("red sambuca"). [1] Like other anise-flavoured liqueurs, the ouzo effect is sometimes observed when combined with water.

Arak is very similar to other anise-based spirits, including the Turkish rakı and the Greek ouzo, [2] [6] the Greek tsikoudia, [3] the Italian sambuca and anisette, the Bulgarian and Macedonian mastika, and the Spanish anis. [6] However, it is unrelated to the similarly named arrack, a sugarcane-based Indonesia liquor. [2]
