    I've been getting into the Greek Coffee. I'm lovin this shit, especially when it's really sweet.

    As well, there is a coffee (probably really common, but I can't remember the name) that is made in New Orleans and it tastes like a perfect mix of regular coffee and greek and/or turkish coffee!

    Of course, all that shit with the brown sugar.

    Dan90059 offered me some arabic coffee last time I was over there and I've gotta say, that is, by far, the best coffee I've tasted. It's ground up with spices (cardemom and cinnamon I belive) and requires no additive. YUM!!

    I made this last night:



    Boil a pot of water and add sugar. Once the sugar has dissolved, add a pinch of baking soda. (The baking soda's supposed to keep it light in color.) Remove from heat and drop in one bag each of these for 30-40 seconds (too long will be too dark):







    Allow to cool and pour in tea jar. Mix in tap water to fill jar. Serve in a tall glass over ice, kick your feet up on the coffe table and place hand (left or right) in pants Al Bundy-style.



    Mmmmmm...

    P.S. In case you can't tell by the picture and/or read Dutch or whatever that is, the flavors are Mango, Peach, Orange and Mountain Berry.

    Chai: This indian conction that has been starbucksed is fucking great!
    Infuse black tea with a stick of cinnamon and nutmeg (wild out on the spices its all good) then add warm milk and mad honey...and bam! In india street venders this is the shit.

    This last thing is senegalese recipe i had the pleasure of enjoying its a fireside tradition there.
    They boil super dark tea leaves with the water (pasta style)in the tea pot and add mad sugar then use tea glasses and do a drip transfer from glass to glass going progressively higher and higher until the tea is clear enough and foamy. Tastes super intense and concentraded but is drunken like a turkish coffe `shooter` they reuse the same tea and boil like 3 times. Keeps you up at night.

    Finally my classic is expresso+brown sugar plus make a pinhole in your little milk goblet and spray to create foam

  • hear these make a great tea...
