I'm not sure what particular things are covered by "jalab." The 
Andalusian cookbook has a whole chapter of drinks, some of which are 
supposed to be served hot, some cold, some either way. But it isn't 
clear to what extent they are ordinary drinks (as sekanjabin, one of 
them, seems to be), and to what extent medicinals, since many of the 
recipes are accompanied by medicinal comments.
