<http://www.florilegium.org/files/PLANTS/sumac-msg.html> pretty well
answers this. Beside the mention of it in Anon. Andalus, in Spain it was
used as a drink with chickpeas and chard and as a substitute for  
murri.>>>

I thought at first you meant the drink was detailed in the  
Florilegium file, but I didn't see it there.

Is this a drink made of sumac that is eaten with chickpeas and chard?  
Or is this a drink containing sumac, chickpeas and chard? If the  
latter, that doesn't sound very good. But I'm trying to keep an open  
mind.
