-5 to 6 ounces of cold water
-2 tablespoons extra finely-ground coffee
-1 to 3 teaspoons sugar, optional
1. Gather the ingredients.
2. Pour the water into the cezve. Add the coffee and sugar, if using. Mix well to dissolve the coffee and sugar. Do not stir after this point.
3. Place the cezve on the stovetop over medium heat. After a few minutes, the coffee will rise and foam up.
4. Before it begins to boil, remove the cezve from the heat. Skim off the foam, adding a little to each serving cup. Return the cezve to the heat and let it slowly foam up again.
5. Pour the coffee very slowly into the serving cups so the foam rises to the top.
6. Let the coffee settle for a few minutes, then serve.
