What is Terebinth and Cardamom Coffee?
Terebinth and cardamom coffee is a coffee-like drink made from roasted, ground terebinth fruit rather than coffee beans, with cardamom added for fragrance. Terebinth coffee is associated with southeastern Turkey, where the fruit has long been used as a local alternative to coffee.
Its flavour is roasted, gently resinous and warmly spiced, while the drink is generally softer than Turkish coffee. It is usually simmered in a small pot with water, or with milk for a creamier cup, and served after a meal or alongside a small sweet. Unsweetened, it is a relatively light choice; use water instead of milk if you want to keep the cup less rich.
