Moroccan Mint Tea
Description:
Mint tea, or what some Moroccans jokingly call “Moroccan whiskey” is a national icon for hospitality. Like many East Asian countries, Morocco has a tea ritual that is essential to welcoming any guest into your house.
Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons of gunpowder tea
- 1 bunch of mint
- 2 tablespoons of sugar
Preparation:
Boil a kettle of water. Put the tea in a teapot. Pour a little bit of boiled water from the kettle into the teapot. Swirl it around with the tea to wash the tea. Pour out the water. Then fill the teapot with boiled water. Put the teapot back on the stove on a low flame, until the tea starts to simmer. Watch it closely so that it doesn’t boil over! Take the teapot off the stove and add the mint and sugar. Moroccans tend to take their tea very sweet, but you may choose to add less sugar.
