Turkish coffee with double sugar is coffee brewed with two measures of sugar in the pot. The sugar dissolves as the coffee cooks, giving the small cup a distinctly sweet taste rather than adding sugar afterward.
Make Turkish coffee with double sugar by stirring finely ground coffee, cold water and two measures of sugar together in a cezve. Heat it slowly until the foam rises, spoon foam into the cup, then pour in the coffee without letting it boil over.
“Double sugar” usually means two sugar cubes or two teaspoons, though cafés may use different measures. Ask for two cubes or teaspoons if you want a predictable sweetness; the phrase alone does not guarantee an exact amount.
Turkish coffee is brewed with very finely ground beans that are not filtered out, so the grounds settle at the bottom of the cup. Let them sink before sipping, and leave the last gritty mouthful rather than drinking the sediment.
No, you generally leave the grounds in Turkish coffee with double sugar. They settle as the coffee stands; sip slowly and stop before the sediment at the bottom, which is also used for the tradition of reading coffee grounds.
No, adding double sugar does not increase or reduce the caffeine in Turkish coffee. The caffeine comes from the coffee itself; the small serving and brewing method make direct comparisons with a large mug of filter coffee misleading.
Turkish coffee with double sugar can lose its foam if it is boiled hard or heated too quickly. Stir the coffee, water and sugar before heating, then cook gently and remove it as the foam rises rather than letting it boil over.
Turkish coffee with double sugar is often served with a glass of water and a small sweet, such as Turkish delight. Since the coffee is already sweet, unsweetened accompaniments can balance the taste.
Yes, you can reheat Turkish coffee with double sugar, but freshly brewed coffee tastes better and keeps its foam. Warm it gently in a cezve without bringing it to a boil, which can make the taste harsher.
Yes, the caffeine in Turkish coffee with double sugar can make it harder to fall asleep, especially if you are sensitive to caffeine. Having it earlier in the day can help; the sugar does not cancel caffeine’s effects.

Turkish coffee, double sugared, is made by gently brewing finely ground coffee with water and two measures of sugar in a cezve, a small long-handled pot. The grounds are not filtered out; they settle at the bottom of the cup. Sugar is added during brewing, so the sweetness is part of the cup rather than stirred in later.
In Turkey and in Turkish communities worldwide, it is served in a small cup, often with a glass of water, after a meal or when welcoming guests. Its strong coffee flavour is softened by pronounced sweetness. Most of its carbohydrate comes from the added sugar, so it suits those who enjoy a sweet cup; ask for less sugar or pair it with water rather than another sweet.
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.
