The tea lady - Sudan style




This lady will make you a coffee or tea you will never forget. She has cinnamon, mint, cardamom or ginger and she's not afraid to use them. On the left she has a small charcoal burner where she boils the water and a bowl to wash up the tiny glasses and chased silver tea pots. Her assistant, a young boy with a tea tray, runs through the market to deliver orders hot and fresh. There's always time for tea, as we found out in our few days here.

EDIT: Now as moving pictures!
