Moroccan Tea

Mint tea isn't just a drink in Morocco--it is a sign of hospitality, friendship, and tradition. Since this drink is so popular, it is served all day long, after every meal, and with every conversation. Moroccans take great pride in their tea and will often ask a visitor who among their group of friends makes the best cup of mint tea, and a minimum of two to three cups needs to be drunk so as not to offend the host.^[1] Moroccan mint tea is a favorite among many people outside of Morocco, too, because of its smooth and sweet taste. It's served very sweet and made the old-fashioned way with gunpowder green tea.
