Cozy Moments with Gahwa

Author : Rumana Reza
 
 
Almost midnight. After a too busy day,I should sleep now. Still some thoughts have kept me awake,though tough to keep my eyes open. And also feeling weak. ...Have come back to my bed with gahwa. After drinking it,I am feeling energized. Now my eyes are happily wide open. Again, I thank Allah for providing me with this cozy drink in the 21st century here in Bangladesh, where the legacy of qahwa/gahwa stems from 9th-10th century origins in the Arabian Peninsula, especially Yemen.  I wonder, why this drink is still such under rated! Except the Middle East , we don't see the hype of it as like as matcha, green tea, coffee etc.
