Adeni Tea or Arabic Shai image

Arabic Tea is popular throughout the Arab world and it is usually served very sweet in a small glass, about 4 ounces. It's common to have with breakfast, dinner, or afternoon tea. Some people don't like to put in too many spices so that's totally up to you. But the one spice which is always used is cardamom and I recommend all of the spices because it has such a lovely taste and aroma.
