The jalabs are a particularly good idea.  Granted they might not be used
in
Europe, but certainly they are period for the Middle East.  What you
could
do is to make up the concentrate before Pennsic, then have the children
either mix water with it to make a drink or pour the syrup over crushed
ice
and serve to your guests.
