Dragonfly Organic Moroccan Mint, 40 Tea Bags 80g
The most authentically Moroccan of the mint-greens here, because it does what the others avoid: it uses gunpowder green tea, which brings a slightly smoky, vegetal backbone that is exactly the traditional North African profile, balanced by sweet organic spearmint rather than aggressive peppermint. Where the Teapigs version sidesteps gunpowder for a softer Chunmee base, this one leans into it, and keeps the bitterness surprisingly low. Caffeine-free it is not, there is real green tea here. No added sugar, so sweeten it if you want the full café cup; otherwise a clean, properly Moroccan brew.
Dragonfly Organic Moroccan Mint, in brief.
Dragonfly Organic Moroccan Mint is the traditional North African gunpowder green tea and spearmint blend from the Dragonfly organic range, the classic Moroccan recipe of rolled green tea pellets blended with spearmint leaf and certified Soil Association organic, picked into the teas.co.uk curator selection as the proper Moroccan-style alternative to a plain pure mint or a plain green tea cup.
The gunpowder green tea does the structural work, giving the cup its pale yellow-gold colour and the soft vegetal backbone that drinks slightly fuller than a standard green-tea bag, while the spearmint adds the lift on top, brighter and sweeter than the peppermint version that the western mint-tea aisle defaults to. The Moroccan tradition serves this poured high from a teapot into a small glass with sugar, and the cup takes a teaspoon of sugar and a fresh mint leaf beautifully if you want the full experience rather than the simpler tea-bag-in-a-mug version.
A forty-bag Dragonfly household pack at an accessible price for the organic-certified tier, the proper Moroccan Mint to compare against the synthetic-mint supermarket green-and-mint blends, and one of the few cups in the supermarket aisle that ports across cleanly to the proper Moroccan glass-and-pot service if you want to make the experience traditional.
Dragonfly Organic Moroccan Mint exists as a functional upgrade for the green tea drinker who finds standard varieties too bitter or grassy. Where cheaper mint teas cover poor leaf with harsh peppermint flavouring, this one lets the natural sweetness of organic spearmint balance the fuller, slightly smoky gunpowder green tea.
If you want a clean, grown up mint cup in 2026, this is the one we would point you to. Whether used as a morning sharpener or a post dinner digestif, this Moroccan mint infusion delivers a crisp liquor that supports mental clarity and physical refreshment for a balanced 2026 routine.
Curator notes: we tasted Moroccan Mint ourselves at the steep time and temperature Dragonfly recommend, then compared our notes with the present carton and the brand's specification. How we store Moroccan Mint, how long a carton stays fresh and what temperature suits it: the Q and A tab lower down has all three.

The story behind Dragonfly
Dragonfly comes from the Ginsberg family: Bruce Ginsberg introduced rooibos to British tea drinkers in 1976, and his grandfather Benjamin was the first to pack it as a tea. Specialising in single-ingredient and simple herbal blends with organic certification, they focus on quality botanicals over flashy positioning. Their Rooibos and Pure Peppermint are British retail benchmarks.
