How to brew

To make traditional Turkish coffee, put one heaped teaspoon of Mehmet Efendi coffee per cup into a cezve or ibrik. Add cold water and sugar if you like. Stir it well, then heat slowly on a low flame until it foams and rises. Take it off the heat just before it boils, pour into small cups, and let the grounds settle before you drink it.
