A nice pot of tea will cost you about thrupence in the Hotel Skint just left of the 9-man chair lift.Enjoy ,
Geraldine & Peggy.
re: local drinks
Thrupence are we giving away our ages ladies Red Bull?
Peggy was wondering if she could get any RED BULL over there. Its great for the low bloodpressure you know, but a bit dodgy if your not used to it.G & P
Beer types.
Kamenitsa is about the best there is until u get to know the others.Its your average local lager.It comes in a Bulmers coloured bottle with a green and white label.Its Bulgarian I think and therefore quite cheap.
All foreign beers are much dearer, but you can still get them.
G'luck,
Kevin
re: local drinks
Yeah tell Peggy she should take herself a hot water bottle and thick bed socks.... although they apparently have men over there that could give you a bit of slap and tickle..so get yourself a crate of red bull and the worlds your oyster 
re: local drinks
very very disappointed with tea would go up to Yorkshire if we wanted tea or India not to boro skiing beer sounds good vodka red bull will do nicely . and maybe vodka orange if i need some vitamin c. so no hot mulled wine or hot chocolate with baileys then or nice Irish coffeemany thanks Rick
re: local drinks
Local teas in BG are herbal, not black, but you can buy any type of imported teas, of course. Herbal teas are much healthier, anyway...Boza is a MUST-TRY sweet and very flavourful non-alcoholic drink( goes well with a pastry like banitsa).
BG beer:try Kamenitza, Shumensko, Zagorka etc. Dozens of reasonable local brands.
Rakia is the BG
fruit brandy, usually made of grapes/ plums or apricots. It's veeeery strong! Have fun!
re: local drinks
Yeah "rakia" is bulgarian's trade mark and it is reaaaly strong alcohol drink. But you can try local yogurt- "kiselo mliako"(in bulgarian) and "airian" it is made from yogurt and water. Actually yougurt and "airian" are very helpful after long night with alcohol.
