Tea with sugar or honey.
خلفية ثقافية
The 'metal holder' (podsklenice) for tea glasses is a nostalgic icon of Czech households, often used for serving hot sweet tea to guests. In school canteens (školní jídelny), 'sladký čaj' is often served in large plastic pitchers. It is notoriously sweet and served at every lunch. During the winter, especially in the mountains, 'sladký čaj' is the base for 'Grog' or 'Čaj s rumem', providing warmth and energy. Czechs believe that a combination of 'sladký čaj', lemon, and bed rest can cure almost any common cold.
