सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Tea is often synonymous with herbal infusions. If you ask for 'чай', you might be asked 'какъв?' (what kind?), referring to the herb (mint, linden, thyme). It is very common to add a spoonful of honey (мед) instead of sugar. Bulgaria is a major honey producer. Drinking tea is the universal remedy for a cold. A 'чай' is the first thing offered to anyone sneezing. Unlike the UK, milk in tea is very rare and might be seen as unusual by older generations.
