Teapigs Green Tea with Mint is the brand's Moroccan style blend, green tea base + spearmint, in temple bag form. Cleaner and fresher than mainstream green mint blends. The Moroccan tradition (gunpowder green + spearmint + sugar) is the inspiration; this is the British supermarket tier interpretation. Excellent post meal or summer cold brew option.

The Moroccan tradition

Moroccan mint tea (atay bnaana) is:
- Gunpowder green tea base.
- Fresh spearmint leaves.
- Sugar (sometimes a lot).
- Brewed in metal teapot, poured from height into small glasses.
- Served three times to guests (each pour is "tradition").
Teapigs Green Tea with Mint is the British supermarket friendly interpretation, temple bag instead of pot, less sugar, but the green mint character is recognisable.
