Electuary
Type of medicine / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An electuary is a medicine consisting of a powder or other ingredient mixed with something sweet such as honey to make it more palatable.[1]
In German and Swiss cultures, electuary (German: Latwerge or Latwerg) is also more generally a thickened juice and honey preparation with a thick, viscous consistency that is used in for culinary purposes, such as a (bread) spread or as a sauce ingredient.[2][3]
In the Indian Ayurveda tradition, electuaries are call lehya[4] (literally, "lickable").
