"as" is followed by a verb phrase, "like is followed by a noun phrase.

Here we have a comparison, the way coffee is drunk in Turkey vs the way coffee is drunk in French.
So, only French will not help, we need some reference to refer the action. A & B out.
By is not good here, since the comparison is between in Turkey .... in French. C out.

Remember, as is used to compare verb phrases and prepositional phrases
like is used to compare noun phrases.
D is winner.

It shd be D.

'Like' when used as a preposition is used to compare two nouns.

'As' is a subordinating conjuction & is used to introduce a dependent clause. Also we know clause shd have a subject and verb.

So D has a subject and verb in it and it properly compares the verb phrases.
