Double Turkish coffee with one sugar is made by combining finely ground coffee, water and one measure of sugar in a cezve, then heating it gently. Pour it into the cup once the foam rises, before the coffee boils over.
“Double” means a larger serving than a standard small cup, rather than a different brewing method. The “one sugar” part describes the sweetening, while the coffee is still prepared in the traditional unfiltered style.
Double Turkish coffee with one sugar is not filtered after brewing, so fine coffee grounds settle at the bottom of the cup. Let them settle before drinking and leave the final mouthful if you dislike the gritty texture.
Water is often served with double Turkish coffee with one sugar to refresh the palate before tasting its concentrated coffee aroma. Many people drink the water first, then sip the coffee slowly.
Sugar is usually added to double Turkish coffee with one sugar before brewing, along with the coffee and water in the cezve. This lets it dissolve as the coffee heats and avoids stirring the foam after serving.
The caffeine in double Turkish coffee with one sugar varies with the coffee bean, grind, recipe and serving size. Because it is unfiltered, the grounds remain in the cup, but the amount actually consumed is not fixed.
You can reheat double Turkish coffee with one sugar, but it is best freshly brewed because reheating can flatten its foam and alter its aroma. Warm it gently rather than bringing it back to a boil.
It can: the caffeine in double Turkish coffee with one sugar may delay sleep, especially for people who are sensitive to caffeine. If it affects your rest, choose an earlier time of day rather than drinking it in the evening.
People with diabetes can include double Turkish coffee with one sugar, but its added sugar can affect blood glucose. Consider the sugar in the context of your eating plan and ask your clinician or dietitian if you need individual guidance.
Yes, but its caffeine contributes to your total daily caffeine intake from coffee, tea, chocolate and other sources. Keep track of those sources and ask your pregnancy care provider what limit is appropriate for you.

Double Turkish coffee with one sugar is made by simmering finely ground coffee, water and sugar together in a cezve, the traditional long-handled pot. The grounds are not filtered out; they settle at the bottom of the cup. The double measure gives it a concentrated, full-bodied taste, while the sugar softens its characteristic bitterness.
In Turkey, it is commonly served in a small cup after a meal or during a visit, often with a glass of water; Turkish delight is an optional accompaniment. It provides caffeine and remains low in calories, though the added sugar contributes some energy. If you are serving it with sweets, the cup’s sweetness may be enough on its own.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
