| a part of Turkish culture. | |
| China in what is now present day Turkey via the Silk Road. The | |
| Turkish word for tea is��ay, which is very similar to the | |
| Chinese word. | |
| cultivate tea in Turkey, but it was difficult to find the right | |
| conditions. Today tea is cultivated successfully in the region | |
| of Rize in the northeast of Turkey, about 120 kilometres from | |
| the border with Georgia; and tea production has become an | |
| important sector of the Turkish economy not only meeting the | |
| demands for private consumption but for export. | |

| culture</b> | |
| integral part of Turkish society that no matter where you go, | |
| you will be offered a glass of tea or one will be simply placed | |
| next to you. | |
| funerals � where tea is not served, and there is no part of the | |
| day tea when tea is not offered. Tea is served not only during | |
| and after meals, but also on occasions such as visiting guests. | |
| Although the tea itself is made without sugar, it is always | |
| drunk with sugar. | |

| transparent; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline;\">How to | |
| prepare tea</b> | |
| sweeten it and drink it. | |
| prepared using two pots or pans: one for brewing the tea and one | |
| for hot water. In restaurants or in public places where a lot of | |
| tea is consumed, the tea is prepared using asemaver. With | |
| a�semaver�the tea is brewed in the pot or kettle on the top of | |
| the�semaver, while the water is kept at boiling boiling point in | |
| the lower part. The tea on the top of the�semaver�is then mixed | |
| or diluted with the boiling water. Depending on how you prefer | |
| your tea, you can mix a lighter, weaker tea with more water | |
| (a�?k �ay) or a darker, stronger tea (koyu �ay). ���� | |

| border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: transparent; font-size: | |
| 15px; vertical-align: baseline;\">Glasses not cups</b> | |
| Turkey tea is traditionally drunk from glasses and not from | |
| cups. You can sweeten the tea directly with sugar, or bite a | |
| piece of sugar before taking a sip of tea. The second option has | |
| the advantage that you don�t consume quite as much sugar as is | |
| actually necessary to enjoy the tea. | |
| traditionally drunk without milk. In the meantime, however, many | |
| other varieties of tea and ways of drinking tea have found their | |
| way into everyday life. | |

| baseline;\">Iced tea in the summer</b> | |
| relatively new way of enjoying tea, especially in the hot summer | |
| months, is iced tea. The brewed, still hot tea is poured into | |
| molds, sugar is added, as well as lemon and whatever other | |
| flavours people prefer. �Water is then added and the mold is | |
| placed in a freezer until it is frozen. It is then eaten like an | |
| ice cream or prepared and drunk as an ice shake. | |
| when tea drinking was limited to black tea, which was refined | |
| with lemon or peppermint to give it a different taste are long | |
| gone. Nevertheless, traditional black will never disappear from | |
| Turkish society. | |
