What is Afghani Tea & Nuckel?

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011
Mother’s Day is around the corner. This year at Ariana Restaurant in Huntington we are treating mom with a pot of Afghani tea and nuku, as well as a piece of one of our home baked desserts.

What is Afghani tea?
As you might already know, tea is a very popular drink is Afghanistan. So, if you visit a friend or go to a relatives house, they immediately offer you a pot of tea with variety of flavors. At Ariana, we do the same with our guests (when you order it) – we offer Afghani green tea with a hint of cardamom.

What is nukul?
Nukul are sugar coded almonds. Traditionally, people throw nukels and other sweets over the bride at their wedding ceremonies. But we at Ariana offer them with the tea and we think that eating nukul with the tea is another way enhancing the pallate.

So, come in and enjoy the delightful experience of Afghani tea with nuckel
