A Scottish term of endearment for a cup of tea — warm, homey, and carrying all the cozy connotations of a proper brew shared between friends or family. While standard English speakers reach for "cuppa," Scots might affectionately call it a stroupach. The word has a soft, comforting sound that suits exactly what it describes: a simple pleasure that fixes most problems.
Come in out of the rain and I'll put the kettle on — a wee stroupach will sort you right out.
