Organic Moroccan Mint

Tea occupies a very important place in Moroccan culture and is served throughout the day, especially as a drink of hospitality.  This organic green tea from China prepared for Moroccan tastes brews a flavorful medium brown liquor with refreshing minty zestiness.  Use one heaping teaspoon of mixed leaf per 8 oz. cup.  Pour boiling spring water over leaves, steeping 4 minutes.  Store in refrigerator.  Or prepare it the Moroccan way, with 5 teaspoons of sugar per teaspoon of tea infused with additional fresh mint or absinthe leaves and served in tiny glasses.  Traditionally the tea is served three times, with each serving having a unique flavor due to the different steeping times.
