This recipe offers a delightful twist on the classic Moroccan mint tea, combining traditional flavors with a touch of modern convenience.
Boil water in a kettle until it reaches a rolling boil.
Using freshly boiled water ensures the tea brews properly and releases its full flavor.
Add a small amount of the hot water to the teapot and swirl it around to warm the pot.
Warming the teapot helps maintain the temperature of the tea during brewing.
Combine the fresh mint, loose-leaf green tea, and sugar in the teapot.
Adjust the amount of sugar to suit your taste preference.
Pour the remaining hot water into the teapot and let the tea steep for three minutes.
Avoid over-steeping to prevent the tea from becoming bitter.
Pour a small amount of tea into a glass and then pour it back into the teapot. Repeat this process a few times.
This step helps dissolve the sugar evenly and aerates the tea for a better flavor.
Serve the tea in glasses, pouring from a height to create a frothy top.
The frothy top is a signature feature of Moroccan mint tea and adds to its presentation.
