Tea at a comfortable drinking temperature.
Contexto cultural
Tea is almost always served with a slice of lemon and sugar. Milk is very rare. In winter, 'meleg tea' is often spiked with 'pálinka' or rum to keep warm. Historically, writers would spend hours over a single 'meleg tea' in coffee houses. The 'menza' (canteen) tea is a specific memory for all Hungarians: very sweet, very lemony, and served warm.
The Accusative Rule
Always remember the '-t' when ordering: 'Meleg teát kérek'.
Temperature Check
If the tea is steaming, call it 'forró' to warn others.
