خلفية ثقافية
Hospitality (Qonaqjaylylyq) dictates that a guest should never leave thirsty. In summer, offering a 'салқын сусын' is the first sign of a good host. In these hotter regions, 'салқын сусын' often refers to 'Shalap' (ayran mixed with water and herbs), which is considered the ultimate thirst quencher. In Almaty, 'салқын сусын' has been adopted by the 'Coffee House' culture, where it now includes iced Americanos and lemonades. There is a common belief that drinking 'мұздай' (icy) drinks causes immediate illness, so many prefer 'салқын' (cool) or even slightly warmed drinks.
Ordering like a pro
Just say 'Салқын бірдеңе' (Something cool) if you can't remember the word for a specific juice.
Temperature matters
If you ask for 'мұздай' (icy), you might get a glass full of ice, which is not traditional.

Tea is still king
Even if you order a cold drink, don't be surprised if your host offers you hot tea immediately after!
