hot sand
Summer beach surface
Hot sand is sand that has been heated, whether by sun, fire, or artificial means.
Beach sand on summer days becomes hot enough to burn bare feet: We sprinted across the hot sand to reach the water.
In cooking, hot sand provides gentle, even heat for roasting coffee or nuts—a traditional technique in Turkish coffee preparation and street food vending.
