Moroccan tea - a tradition

I enjoyed Moroccan tea while visiting the Global village during the last Dubai Shopping festival 2012 - 2013.

It was written at the front of the outlet that they serve authentic Moroccan tea so I decided to try it out.

I liked the drink.

Mint leaves are added to gunpowder green tea to make this flavourful drink. During preparation, the drink is poured back into the pot to mix it well with sugar. Yes, they prepare this delicious drink with sugar.

You can see a traditional silver-colored teapot (berrad) and glass with a greenish tint. These are kept on a silver tray. A soft cloth is wrapped at the handle. The hot drink is poured into glasses from a certain height to produce foam.

Green tea is rich in antioxidants and is very good for health.

Moroccans serve tea as part of their wonderful hospitality. On formal occasions, tea drinking here is akin to the world famous Japanese tea ceremony.
