Turkish Tea

This is the most popular drink in Turkey, chay (pronounced "chai"). It's the best thing to drink after eating dark chocolate pudding with ground pistachios top. Oh my heavens!

Throughout every city, you can see men with trays walking around. They deliver it to businesses in the area. I sometimes order it myself. When my manager wants some, he calls down to the ground floor with the apartment intercom (the tea house is right across from the front door of the building) and says, "Gohkan?. . .Gohkan?! Iki tane chay!" and hangs up. A few minutes later Gohkan comes up with two teas. Yum yum.
