What is Greek Coffee?
Greek coffee is made with a fine grind of Turkish coffee (sometimes called a Turkish grind). It is boiled in a tall, narrow pot known as a briki, cezve, or an ibrik.
Greek coffee is served with grounds in the cup and often a demitasse cup. The grounds are allowed to settle as the coffee is slowly sipped.
