From drinks tea is the most popular drink in Tajikistan and it is difficult to go anywhere without seeing someone with a tea glass in hand. Both green and black teas are popular, but sugar is never used with tea. If you want to try out some more traditional drinks, try kefir, which is a yogurt drink or sherbets, which in Tajikistan are sweet fruit drinks. Other available beverages include juices, soft drinks, and coffee although none are as popular as tea.
