The coffee is always best when made in small quantities. Serving cups are small.

The beverage itself is strong and a few sips suffice.

The average coffee cup holds about one quarter of a standard measuring cup. Purists in the art of making Arabic coffee insist that the beans be roasted over charcoal fire and ground in a stone mortar.

The usual method of making Arabic coffee calls for dissolving the sugar in the water before adding the powdered coffee.

Ordinarily one level teaspoon of sugar and one heaped teaspoon of ground coffee are used with each coffee cup of water per serving.
