In Mandaeism, hamra (Classical Mandaic: ࡄࡀࡌࡓࡀ) is sacramental water mixed with raisins that have been macerated (i.e., softened via soaking). Although it is often translated as "wine" or "grape juice," hamra used in Mandaean rituals is non-alcoholic, and it is also not freshly pressed grape juice. It is used during wedding and masiqta rituals. The hamra can be served in a kapta, a shallow brass drinking bowl that is 11 inches or less in perimeter, or in a qanina (small glass bottle).
