Tea Pleasure in Ramadan: The Right Choices for Suhoor and Iftar

Ramadan's Tea Guide: Tea Choices from Suhoor to Iftar

Ramadan is a season of slowing down, sharing, and living each moment more consciously. During this month, the most beautiful moments at the table are suhoor and iftar; and in those moments, a cup of the right tea nourishes both body and soul. As Lazika, we have compiled the most appropriate tea choices for this special month, from suhoor to iftar.

Tea at Suhoor: Energy and Preparation

The suhoor meal is meant to provide you with the energy to carry you through the entire day. Your tea choices should support this goal.

Lazika Black Tea — A Strong Start

Our first-harvest black tea from the high villages of Rize is an excellent choice for suhoor. Thanks to its natural caffeine content, it helps you stay awake and focused for a long time. Brew it strong or light — prepare it according to your preference at suhoor.

Suggested brewing: 1 teaspoon per person, steep in the teapot for 15–20 minutes.

Lazika Green Tea — A Lighter Option

For those who want to energize without upsetting their stomach, Lazika Green Tea is ideal. Our green tea, hand-picked from the high plateaus of Çamlıhemşin and processed using traditional methods, contains much higher levels of polyphenols and catechins than the standards in Turkey. When consumed with breakfast, it aids digestion.

Tea at Iftar: Refreshment and Blessing

The moment of iftar is the breaking of the fast; the body begins to be nourished again. During this transition, tea plays both a comforting and regulating role.

After Iftar: Lazika Black Tea

After heavy meals, a cup of black tea supports digestion and offers that familiar warm feeling. An indispensable part of a traditional Turkish iftar — dates, pastries, soup — followed by a cup of Lazika tea. This combination has remained unchanged for centuries.

On Ramadan Nights: Lazika Bergamot Flavored Tea

During long Ramadan nights, while chatting with friends and family, Lazika Bergamot Flavored Tea specializess the tables. The refreshing, citrusy scent of bergamot adds a Ramadan ambiance to the room. Lazika Bergamot tea is prepared by adding bergamot flavor to a first-harvest May tea base.

Things to Consider When Consuming Tea During Ramadan

•        Avoid drinking very strong tea on an empty stomach — it can irritate the stomach

•        If you drink black tea at suhoor, do not neglect to drink plenty of water as well

•        If you are sensitive to caffeine, opt for green tea or herbal tea

•        Always make sure to brew tea fresh; stale tea is not recommended
