1 cup (medium) of Turkish coffee with milk (80 g) has 30 calories. That works out to 38 calories per 100 g. It contains 3.4 g of carbs, 1.4 g of protein, 1 g of fat and 0 g of fiber. Its 0.2 µg of B12 covers 7% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 35 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Turkish coffee with milk is a variation of Turkish coffee, made by simmering finely ground coffee with milk in a small pot called a cezve. The grounds are not filtered out, so they settle at the bottom of the cup; the milk gives the brew a gentler, creamier character than the usual water-based version.
In Turkey it is often enjoyed slowly after a meal, with a glass of water and perhaps a small sweet. You can serve it in a small cup and leave the last sip, where the grounds collect. Milk adds some protein and fat, while coffee remains the defining flavour. For a lighter cup, use less milk and dilute it with water as it cooks.

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.

Make Turkish coffee with milk by cooking finely ground coffee in milk instead of water. Stir the coffee and milk together in a cezve, heat slowly, and remove it as the foam rises; milk can boil over quickly.
Yes, milk can replace water when making Turkish coffee with milk. The result is creamier and less sharp than coffee made with water, but it needs close attention because heated milk foams and scorches more easily.
Whole milk makes Turkish coffee with milk taste richer, while lower-fat milk gives it a lighter body. Lactose-free cow’s milk also works; heat it gently with the coffee rather than adding cold milk after brewing.
For foam on Turkish coffee with milk, mix the coffee into the milk before heating and warm it slowly in a cezve. Take it off the heat as the foam rises, before it reaches a full boil or spills over.
Add sugar to Turkish coffee with milk before cooking, along with the coffee and milk. This lets it dissolve evenly; choose your preferred sweetness at the start, since stirring after foam forms can disrupt the surface.
Turkish coffee with milk boils over because heated milk expands and its foam rises quickly. Use low heat, leave room in the cezve, and watch it continuously; remove it from the burner as soon as the foam climbs.
Yes, Turkish coffee with milk still contains caffeine. Milk makes the drink creamier but does not remove caffeine, so people sensitive to it may want to avoid having it close to bedtime.
No, you generally leave the grounds at the bottom of Turkish coffee with milk. Sip the drink without stirring up the settled sediment; the grounds are part of the traditional brewing method, not meant to be swallowed.
You can reheat Turkish coffee with milk, but it may lose its foam and develop a less fresh taste. It is best made for immediate drinking; if reheating, warm it gently and do not let the milk boil over.
Yes, you can make Turkish coffee with milk in a small saucepan if you do not have a cezve. Heat the finely ground coffee and milk slowly, keep the pan in view, and pour carefully as soon as the foam rises.
