Old world green tea meets fresh mint. Smooth, vibrant, and endlessly refreshing.
Moroccan Mint is one of the most beloved tea traditions in the world — and for good reason. The combination of aged green tea and fresh mint creates a cup that's simultaneously calming and invigorating, smooth and bright, warm and refreshing. It's the kind of tea that works at any time of day: a gentle morning alternative to coffee, a midday reset, or a soothing after-dinner ritual. Brewed hot, it's smooth and aromatic with a clean mint finish. Brewed iced, it's next-level — crisp, vibrant, and genuinely refreshing in a way that store-bought mint teas simply can't match. A beautiful loose leaf experience that's as easy to brew as it is to enjoy, and a standout gift for anyone who loves tea or is just starting to explore it.

Common Questions & Brew Notes
What type of mint is used in Moroccan Mint tea, and why does it taste different from regular mint tea?
Our Moroccan Mint uses spearmint rather than peppermint — the traditional choice in authentic Moroccan tea culture. Spearmint is naturally sweeter and more delicate than peppermint, with a softer, less medicinal coolness. Blended with a gunpowder green tea base, it creates the classic bright, refreshing, and slightly sweet flavor profile that Moroccan mint tea is famous for.
How do I brew Moroccan Mint tea the traditional way?
In Morocco, mint tea is brewed strong and served sweet. Use 1–1.5 teaspoons per 8 oz of water heated to 175–185°F and steep for 3 minutes. Traditionally it's sweetened generously with sugar and poured from a height to create a light foam on top. For a modern twist, brew it unsweetened over ice for a refreshing cold drink, or add a squeeze of lemon to brighten the mint and green tea notes.
Is Moroccan Mint tea caffeinated?
Yes, since it is blended with a gunpowder green tea base, Moroccan Mint contains a light to moderate amount of caffeine — approximately 25–40 mg per 8 oz cup. It's a great option for those who want a gentle energy lift without the intensity of black tea or coffee. The spearmint also has natural soothing properties that make this a wonderfully calming yet alert cup at any time of day.
Can I drink Moroccan Mint tea hot and iced?
Absolutely — it's one of the most versatile teas in our collection. Hot, it's warming, aromatic, and deeply comforting. Iced, the spearmint becomes incredibly crisp and refreshing, making it a perfect summer drink. For iced Moroccan Mint, brew double strength, let it cool, and pour over ice. Add a sprig of fresh mint and a slice of lemon for a stunning, café-quality presentation at home.
