Usually coffee is served with a glass of water. Tea is also popular, most often it is herbal or floral infusion. Therefore, if you want to taste a traditional drink, then order Indian tea. Freshly prepared lemonade is also popular, and sugar to it is served separately.
The best beers here are Karlovačko and Ožujsko. When buying in a store, note that the price is indicated without the cost of the container.
