Frequently Asked Questions About Turkish coffee with mastic
What is Turkish coffee with mastic?
Turkish coffee with mastic is finely ground coffee brewed in a cezve with mastic, an aromatic tree resin. The resin gives the coffee a distinctive pine-like fragrance and a mildly fresh, resinous taste.
How do you make Turkish coffee with mastic?
Brew Turkish coffee with mastic by combining finely ground coffee, water and finely crushed mastic in a cezve, then heating it gently. Remove it as the foam rises and pour it into small cups; let the grounds settle before drinking.
What does mastic taste like in Turkish coffee?
Mastic gives Turkish coffee with mastic a resinous, pine-like aroma with a subtle fresh sweetness. Its flavor is distinctive rather than strongly sugary, and using too much can overwhelm the coffee's own roasted notes.
When should you add mastic to Turkish coffee?
Add the mastic to Turkish coffee with mastic before brewing, along with the coffee and water. Crush it finely first so the aroma spreads through the drink instead of leaving a strong-tasting lump in one cup.
Does Turkish coffee with mastic have caffeine?
Yes, Turkish coffee with mastic contains caffeine because mastic is only a flavoring; it does not remove the coffee's caffeine. If caffeine affects your sleep, have it earlier in the day rather than near bedtime.
Why does Turkish coffee with mastic have foam?
The foam on Turkish coffee with mastic forms as finely ground coffee heats in the cezve. Gentle heating and taking the pot off the heat as the foam rises help preserve it; mastic itself is not what creates the foam.
Can you drink the grounds in Turkish coffee with mastic?
No, the grounds in Turkish coffee with mastic are normally left in the cup rather than swallowed. Give them a moment to settle, then sip slowly and leave the sediment at the bottom.
Can you add sugar to Turkish coffee with mastic?
Yes, you can make Turkish coffee with mastic with or without sugar. Add sugar to the cezve before brewing if you want it sweet; trying it unsweetened first makes the mastic's distinctive aroma easier to notice.
How is Turkish coffee with mastic different from regular Turkish coffee?
Turkish coffee with mastic is brewed like regular Turkish coffee, but mastic adds a fragrant, resinous note that changes its aroma and aftertaste. The amount of mastic determines whether that note gently complements or dominates the coffee.
Should you serve Turkish coffee with mastic with water?
Yes, serving Turkish coffee with mastic with a small glass of water is a traditional and practical choice. A sip of water before the coffee refreshes the palate, while a small sweet such as Turkish delight can accompany it.

What is Turkish coffee with mastic?
Turkish coffee with mastic is finely ground coffee simmered in water, traditionally in a small pot, with mastic resin adding its distinctive aromatic note. It is served unfiltered, so the grounds settle in the cup, and a fine foam is often prized on top. The preparation belongs to the Turkish coffee tradition, while mastic is a familiar flavour in parts of the eastern Mediterranean.
In Turkey it is commonly enjoyed from a small cup after a meal or during a visit, often with a glass of water and sometimes a sweet. Its flavour is rich and earthy, balanced by mastic’s slightly pine-like, resinous aroma. Unsweetened, it is mostly water and low in calories; added sugar changes that. Sip it slowly and leave the settled grounds at the bottom.
