Shisha is a major part of many Arabs ‘ daily lives, especially in the Middle East. Whether its a chill night with your family or after a long day of work, there’s usually shisha involved. It’s a way to relax, unwind and socialize. Shisha was more of a cultural activity that has now become a lifestyle for Arabs and many Arab Americans too.

Although the shisha originated in India and Pakistan, it is now more common in the Middle East than ever. You can usually find shisha at restaurants, cafes, lounges, and more. This lifestyle is normal for Arabs, but they find ways to make it extraordinary.

There’s a way to take it up a notch, with fruits. The tobacco in Shisha people smoke, these days, is flavored usually with fruits such as cherry, lemon, grape etc. These flavors are so sweet yet sour and it makes the tobacco tasty. It’s these flavors that entice people to smoke.

 

For example, there is delicious watermelon flavored tobacco that many people love. To make this taste even stronger, longer lasting and fresh, the smoker can use a real watermelon. This can be done by cutting open the watermelon from the top, scooping out the fruit from inside and filling it up with water instead. The watermelon base will then replace the vase and the rest of the shisha equipment can be hooked up from there. It’s a tasty shisha and the plus side is that you’ll get the fresh watermelon to eat on the side too.
