Step 1

Add the desired amount of water to your cezve.

Step 2

Heat the pot over medium heat until the water begins to warm up.

Step 3

Add a heaping teaspoon of coffee or two of your ground coffee for every three ounces of water. Do not stir.

Step 4

Sweeten with sugar to taste, but do not stir, yet.

Step 5

Once the coffee begins to sink, and the sugar dissolves, turn the heat down to low and stir it until foam begins to form.

Step 6

When you see a ring begin to form, turn down the heat or remove it from the heat source temporarily.

Step 7

Keep the foaming stage going as long as you can. If you see it beginning to rise, remove it from the heat and then replace it.
