Significado
Tea with a high concentration of flavor or caffeine.
Contexto cultural
Hungarians usually drink tea with lemon (citrom) and sugar (cukor). Adding milk is considered an 'English' habit and is quite rare. In the UK, 'strong tea' often implies a long steep of black tea followed by a splash of milk. In Hungary, 'erős' usually means 'black and bitter'. The 'orosz tea' (Russian tea) tradition influenced Hungary. It involves a very strong concentrate diluted with water. In winter, strong tea is often served with a side of 'pálinka' to keep warm.
