We cannot start this lesson without mentioning the national drink of Turkey: çay (pronounced "chai"). Turkish tea is an essential part of Turkish culture and daily life, and is served in a thin-waisted glass called a "fincan" with a tiny spoon and sugar cubes on the side. Turkish tea is traditionally brewed in two stacked kettles called "çaydanlık". The bottom kettle holds boiling water, while the upper kettle holds loose-leaf tea. When brewed, the tea is poured from the upper kettle into the bottom one, and then diluted with hot water to the desired strength. | We cannot start this lesson without mentioning the national drink of Turkey: çay (pronounced "chai").
