Turkish coffee is a rich, aromatic beverage rooted in Ottoman tradition, originating from Turkey and widespread across Middle Eastern and Balkan cuisines. Made by boiling finely ground coffee with water and sugar—often in a cezve, a small copper pot—it is served unfiltered, with grounds settling at the bottom of the cup. Known for its bold flavor and thick texture, Turkish coffee contains essential nutrients such as antioxidants, which can support heart health and reduce inflammation. It also provides a concentrated dose of caffeine, enhancing focus and energy. However, its unfiltered preparation leaves cafestol and kahweol compounds intact, which may impact cholesterol levels if consumed excessively. Enjoyed in moderation, Turkish coffee offers a unique cultural experience along with potential health benefits. Tradition often pairs it with a glass of water and a sweet treat, creating a balanced and delightful ritual.
