意思
Tea that is brewed to be very dark and potent.
文化背景
In cities like Addis Ababa, 'Shay-Buna' shops are the social equivalent of pubs. People stand and drink 'ብርቱ ሻይ' while discussing politics or sports. Ethiopian students often prefer 'ብርቱ ሻይ' over coffee during exams because it is cheaper and can be drunk in larger quantities. In cold regions like Debre Berhan, 'ብርቱ ሻይ' is often served with a lot of ginger to help keep the body warm. When a guest arrives, offering 'ብርቱ ሻይ' shows that you are giving them your best, most flavorful tea.
