Keto Turkish Coffee

Have your culture and drink it too! You might be familiar with Italian-style coffees - espresso, anyone? - but this Turkish-style coffee will be your new addiction. Keto Middle Eastern recipes are surprisingly simple to integrate into a high-fat and low-carb diet. Add Turkish coffee to your morning routine, and consider adding a dollop of butter instead of a liquid dairy product.

This is why you brew the coffee on your stovetop and take an extra step to remove impurities. Since it really takes no time at all, you’ll want to consider replacing your regular morning joe with this special Turkish coffee recipe.

What makes Turkish coffee different from other coffee?

Turkish coffee is different from other styles of coffee in many ways, including how it’s made and what it’s made of. Traditionally, Turkish coffee is brewed in a small pot called a cezve. It’s served in small glasses, like tea or espresso glasses, because it’s traditionally served dark. However, it’s common to add lots of sugar or sweetener and sometimes ground spices.

What to add to Turkish coffee

Your lowest carb option would be to sweeten your Keto Turkish coffee with liquid stevia drops. Otherwise, powdered erythritol or monk fruit is fine. Cardamom is also traditionally added. Infuse a whole pod of cardamom in the coffee or add just a pinch of ground spice. Although not as common, other “warm” spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice would also complement your coffee.
