Contexto cultural

Tea is often associated with being sick. If you order black tea, people might ask if you feel okay, though this is changing in cities. Black tea is the national drink, almost always served with milk, which is less common in Bulgaria. Tea (Çay) is a symbol of hospitality and is served all day in small tulip-shaped glasses. Bulgarian tea culture in the south is heavily influenced by this. The 'Samovar' tradition influenced Bulgarian tea drinking in the 19th century, leading to the use of jam as a sweetener.

Ordering like a local

If you want it with honey, say 'с мед' (s med). It's very common in Bulgaria.

⚠️

Caffeine content

Bulgarian black tea can be quite strong. If you're sensitive, ask for it 'по-слаб' (weaker).
