Coffee and tea

Coffee (káva) and tea (čaj) are very popular hot drinks everywhere in the world, and no less so in Prague. There are a few coffee terms regarding different coffees. The traditional Czech coffee is Turek, or Turkish coffee (hot water poured over ground beans that end up as sludge at the bottom of your cup). Espreso is a black coffee or a kind of Italian version of strong Espresso. Coffee with milk is called ‘espreso s mlékem'. Vídeňská káva (Viennese coffee) is another popular choice, and consists of coffee topped with whipped cream. Other coffees on Prague menus are latte and cappuccino. The quality of coffee prepared in Prague varies, and even some very good hotels still serve instant coffee rather than fresh brewed coffee. Fortunately there are a lot of excellent cafés and chains including Cafe Haven and Starbucks if you are desperate for a well-made coffee. The tea served in Prague is mostly weak and usually comes with a slice of lemon. Tea with milk is not commonly offered but you can always ask for extra milk. Tea houses have popped up in recent years on many corners serving world-renowned teas.
