I need to make special mention of the Bedouin tea. They call it chai, but have more of a sh sound on the front.
Whatever it is, it is regular black tea, except for a few added touches. One being the crazy fire blackened tea pots that seem to be Bedouin standard equipment and the other being copious amounts of sugar. Throw in a pile of sugar (I'm not sure how much, but enough), and the water then set the pot in a fire fed by one of the bountiful desert bushes. Next up the tea, dip dip dip, get a good steep on, then enjoy.
They call it Bedouin whiskey and it's served in teensy glasses. Delicious and a decent pick me up. Who knew a nice cup of piping hot tea would be so de rigeur and desireable in the desert?
