Moroccan Mint Tea, Done Properly
teas.co.uk · 5 min · Serves 1
You'll need
- 1 tea bag of Lipton Moroccan Infusion
- 250ml freshly drawn water at 100C, just off the boil
- 1 sugar cube
- 1 250ml mug, warmed
- 1 saucer for covering during steep
Method
- Warm your mug or a glass and bring the water to a boil.
- Drop in one tea bag, a sugar cube, and a sprig of fresh mint if you have one.
- Pour over 250ml of just boiled water, cover and steep for four minutes.
- Lift out the bag and stir until the sugar has dissolved.
- Serve hot, traditionally in a small glass rather than a mug.
- Tip: pour it into the glass from a height, which aerates the tea and gives it the little foam the Moroccans look for.
