Black Tea, is one of Turkish favourite hot drink.
The cups are not big, because they believe that a hot drink should be taken hot. Too big a glass, will mean that by the time you are finishing your tea, it would have turned cold.

This room was originally divided into two single rooms: one for Napoleon's valet and one serving as the Emperor's drawing room.
“The Château de Malmaison[…]is a French château[…]located near the western bank of the Seine about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) west of the centre of Paris.
“Formerly the residence of Empress Joséphine de Beauharnais, along with the Tuileries it was the headquarters of the French government from 1800 to 1802, and Napoleon's last residence in France at the end of the Hundred Days in 1815.
“Joséphine de Beauharnais bought the manor house in April 1799 for herself and her husband, General Napoléon Bonaparte, the future Napoléon I of France, at that time away fighting the Egyptian Campaign. Malmaison was a run-down estate[…]that encompassed nearly 150 acres (0.61 km2) of woods and meadows.
“Upon his return, Bonaparte expressed fury at Joséphine for purchasing such an expensive house with the money she had expected him to bring back from the Egyptian campaign. The house, for which she had paid well over 300,000 francs, needed extensive renovations, and she spent a fortune doing so. Malmaison would bring great happiness to the Bonapartes. Joséphine's daughter, Hortense would call it ‘a delicious spot’.
“After her divorce from Napoléon, Joséphine received Malmaison in her own right, along with a pension of 5 million francs a year, and remained there until her death in 1814. Napoléon returned and took residence in the house after his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo (1815), before his exile to the island of Saint Helena.”

Serving at the southern terminus of the Welland Canal, Port Colborne is a very important location for Great Lakes Shipping. The Inner Light was built in 1903 on the east side of the canal. The Outer Light was built in 1928 and sits on the west breakwall. During my short time at Port Colborne, the Lake Freighter Cedarglen (Canada Steamship Lines) came through the port and sailed out into Lake Erie, past the lighthouses.
...she sat outside her home (was it too hot, I wondered) and was pouring cold buttermilk into so many cups, perhaps for sale or to just give away to the wary passer-bys... I loved her home and its colors
