A Vendor in Jordan Makes Turkish Sand Coffee That Appears to Brew Like Magic

A vendor in Aqaba, Jordan makes Turkish coffee using a heated bowl of sand in afascinating video posted by Ahmad Al-Zaben. While it almost appears the coffee is somehow filling from the bottom up magically from the sand, ground coffee and water are already in the pot (called a cezve), and the hot sand heats the water to a rolling boil that reaches the top of the cezve.
