I'd mentioned before that the Turks had occupied Serbia for 500 years and left many traces behind in the language, music, and overall culture.

The coffee is boiled in a little dzezva (DJEZ-va) like the one you see here and served in small cups. I'm not very good at making Turkish coffee, so the typical and desirable foam you'd see on the top is absent in my cup! On the little plate are Turkish Delights, also still popular.
