TURKISH TEA CULTURE

People may assume Turkish Coffee is the national drink of Turkey but this could not be more wrong.. We love drinking tea from sunrise to sunset and there is never a bad time to drink it in here, Turkey! A young boy carrying a silver tray hurries through the crowd to deliver small tulip shaped glasses filled with black tea is a very familiar sight in streets. Shopkeepers often offer customers a Turkish tea specially in Grand Bazaar, as a sign of friendship and hospitality. During your holiday, browsing through shops, you only have to say “yes” when being offered the "Çay" :) To see unique Turkish Tea Sets and delicious Turkish Tea you can visit; www.grandbazaarshopping.com
