This unique drink, deeply rooted in Turkish culture, adds a special touch of energy and warmth to your tea time.
2 cups water 2 teaspoons loose black tea leaves Sugar (optional)
Bring the water to a boil in a teapot. Add the black tea leaves to a tea infuser or directly into the teapot.
Allow the tea to steep for about 10-15 minutes, depending on your desired flavour.
Once steeped, pour the tea into small glasses called "çay bardağı" (Turkish tea glasses). Serve hot with sugar cubes on the side, allowing each guest to sweeten their tea according to preference.
