Morocco’s national drink, mint tea, is considered one of the world’s best. The British brought tea to Morocco in the middle of the nineteenth century. It was probably at this time in the Tangier market that mint was first added. Merchants found that infusing the blend resulted in a drink with stimulating and calming effects due to the medicinal properties of mint. You’ll learn the value of patience and persistence if you’ve ever haggled for a rug in Morocco.
In fact, it is customary to serve mint tea to guests upon arrival as a way of welcoming them into the home. The tea is traditionally prepared in a silver teapot and poured into small glasses from a height to create a frothy layer on top. It is often served with sweet treats such as pastries or dried fruits. The combination of mint and tea creates a refreshing and soothing beverage that is perfect for hot days or after a meal.
Our tea, like the original recipe, is flavoured with a zingy, invigorating mint. This refreshing and revitalizing tea may be enjoyed at any time of the day.
