Tea is the more common everyday hot drink in Tanzania, often served sweet and strong with milk, while coffee is widely enjoyed but usually as a morning or social drink rather than something taken constantly throughout the day. In homes, guesthouses, and roadside stalls you may be offered
chai first, and in coffee-growing areas like Kilimanjaro and Arusha, locally grown beans are a point of pride and may be prepared in a simple, unhurried style.
