Coffee

So, in this region of the world a lot of people drink "Turkish" coffee. This means coffee that is boiled with the grounds in it. It's much thicker than American coffee, is served in a smaller cup, and often has a kind of sludge at the bottom. It never has milk added but if people want sugar it is boiled with the sugar. They had this in Bulgaria too. However, here they do something a little different. At a cafe, they serve you this coffee with a small glass of sparkling water. You don't pay for the water, it comes with the coffee. It make sense since this coffee is so thick but is just something interesting that I have not seen before.
