🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

It is traditional to serve a glass of cold water alongside Turkish coffee (domaća kafa). You should take a sip of water before the coffee to cleanse your palate. The 'Promaja' myth: Many believe drinking cold water while sweating causes 'upala grla' (sore throat). You will often be offered water at room temperature instead. Water is blessed during the feast of Epiphany (Bogojavljenje). People often swim in cold rivers to symbolize purification. Mountain springs (izvori) are highly prized. People will travel miles to fill bottles with 'hladna izvorska voda' because it is considered healthier than tap water.

💬

The Ice Rule

In Serbia, water is often served cold from the fridge but without ice. If you want ice, you must explicitly ask for 'led'.

⚠️

The Throat Myth

Be prepared for older Serbians to warn you that 'hladna voda' will make you sick if you drink it too fast.
