"In turn, from the oases, the nomads receive, most importantly, Sa-Tarna grain and the Bazi Tea." Tribesmen of Gor, page 37 "From time to time the caravan stopped and, boiling water over tiny fires, we made tea."

"Is it ready? I asked. I looked at the tiny copper kettle on the small stand. A tiny kaiila dung fire burned under it. A small, heavy, curved glass was nearby, on a flat box, which would hold some two ounces of the tea. Bazi tea is drunk in tiny glasses, usually three at a time, carefully measured. She did not make herself tea, of course... She lifted the kettle from the fire and, carefully, poured me a tiny glass of tea."
