Gozinaki (Georgian: Script error: No such module "Lang". gozinaq’i, Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a traditional Georgian confection made of caramelized nuts, usually walnuts, and fried in honey.[1][2][3] In the western Georgian provinces of Imereti and Racha, it was sometimes called "churchkhela", a name more commonly applied to walnuts sewn onto a string, dipped in thickened white grape juice and dried.[2] In several of Georgia's rural areas, both walnuts and honey used to have sacral associations. According to a long-established tradition, Gozinaki is served at special occasions, and is a mandatory component of New Year's Eve[2][4] and Christmas celebrations.[3][5][6]
