Brewing Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients
Measure 2 tablespoons of finely ground Turkish coffee and place it into a cezve (small coffee pot). Measure 150 ml of cold water and add it to the cezve with the coffee.

Mix the Ingredients
Stir the mixture gently to combine the coffee and sugar (if added) with the water. Ensure that the coffee grounds are fully saturated.
- 4
Heat the Cezve
Place the cezve over low to medium heat. Keep a close eye on it to prevent boiling over, as Turkish coffee foams up as it heats.
- 5
Watch for Foam
As the coffee heats, it will start to foam. When the foam begins to rise to the top, remove the cezve from the heat. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
- 6
Pour and Serve
Slowly pour the coffee into a small cup, allowing the foam to come first. Be careful not to pour the grounds at the bottom of the cezve into the cup.
- 7
Enjoy
Let the coffee sit for a minute before drinking to allow the grounds to settle. Sip slowly and enjoy the rich, aromatic flavors of your Turkish coffee.
