MOROCCAN MINT TEA

I took my grand daughters to a Princess Tea and they tasted, and enjoyed, the mint tea that was served. When we got back home I made Moroccan Mint Tea for the girls. It was cold and rainy that day, so I served the tea hot. However, the girls enjoyed the tea so much that they commented that it would be great cold, as well. I like it cold on a very hot summer day.

I love this as an iced tea and a hot tea, I make it by the pitcher, pour a cup as a hot tea, then refrigerate the rest for iced tea! I make this year round because it's so refreshing

This is great tea! I love how the leaves look so fresh when you pour water over them. It has a nice minty flavor.

Very good

Delicious gentle mint flavor.

excellent

My husband loves mint and this is his "go to" tea.

This is what it is supposed to be, a bit too much tea only but true to its title.

I’ve just returned from Morocco, where the tea is always made with the fresh version of Maghrebi spearmint. Unlike most “Moroccan Mint Teas” available in the States, which are made with an excess of peppermint flavoring, this tea is the closest I’ve found to the original. The dried spearmint is as close in flavor to the fresh one as you can expect of a dried herb, and the Gunpowder tea imparts the perfect balance of flavor with a slight bitterness on subsequent rebrewing. Definitely not a candy cane in a cup.

Sometimes mint tea can trend toward medicinal, but this blend is very balanced and pleasant. I do wish there was a little more gunpowder to mint ratio, more like what is shown in the photo.
