5 teaspoons of coffee,
5 teaspoons of sugar,
5 cups of cold water.
Pour water into a cezve, add sugar, and place it over heat. When the water boils, pour a small amount of it into a separate cup and add 5 teaspoons of finely ground coffee. Put the cezve back on the heat, but on a lower setting. As soon as the foam rises, remove the cezve, stir the contents, and return it to the heat. It is believed that the foam should rise three times—only then is the coffee considered ready. Finally, add the previously set-aside water, distribute some foam into the cups, and pour the coffee.
In an alternative method, the ground coffee is first added to the cezve, and then it is poured over with sweetened water that has been boiled separately.
