What a lovely refreshing light mint tea Sackville. It was quick and easy to make with great results. I really enjoyed using the green tea, as it allowed the mint to shine. I did sweeten it with sugar for a perfect glass of tea. I must confess that I enjoyed it so much, I drank the whole pot myself. What a great use for all the mint in the herb garden. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe, that I will make again. :)

Very good tea! I used about 13 sprigs of mint and two bags of green tea. Thank you for posting this wonderful refreshing drink, I really liked it.

Reviwed for ZWT3. This tea was terrific! I am married to a North African and we drink mint tea all the time.
I usually put the mint & teain a pan of boiling water for a minute before transferring to the tea pot. I ALWAYS mix in the sugar using a tea glass and pour the tea at least twice into a glass (from as high up as you can get!).
I used half dry and half fresh mint as this gives a more powerfull flavour. An excellent recipe for anyone to use!

Just thought I would add my thumbs up for this tea. I have to confess that I have been a little confused as to how big a "sprig" of mint is. I've made this tea several times now, with various sized sprigs (sometimes snipping just the top two leaves, sometimes, the top four leave. All my attempts have been praised as very good! So, thanks for a new treat that my whole family has been enjoying occassionally. It was especially appreciated by my son when he had a sore throat!

This is just like the tea a Morrocan friend frequently prepares for us on special occasions. So soothing and tasty - a dessert in itself. The technique was wonderful and made the difference as I've tried to replicate and was unable to do so until now. Thanks for a preview of my upcoming trip to Fez. If I close my eyes, sipping this takes me there. :) I used Splenda instead of sugar. Other than that, I wouldn't change a thing.

When we were in Morocco last winter, we fell in love with this wonderful drink, which was served up every morning and evening! This recipe is really authentic and should bring a lot of pleasure to anyone who tries it.

Having lived in Morocco, I can attest to the fact that this mint tea version is the most accurate out of any that I have seen on this website.
Just a little advice for an even more authentic tea:
mix the tea like described (pouring into a glass and back into pot), but do this more than twice.
Also, while this is not done in all parts of Morocco, I find that upon first mixing the tea, pouring out the first 1/2 a glass gives it a better flavor. You will notice that this first 1/2 a glass is much darker in color. You will have a cleaner flavor if you do this.

Great mint tea recipe. We served this as part of a Moroccan dinner. Great flavour. I can see making this again soon and perhaps even serving it iced for a nice change from regular iced tea. Thanks Sackville Girl.

I really enjoyed this. I'm not all that keen on plain green tea but it is so good for you! I am happy to have a new way to make it. I think this would also be great as iced tea.

This tastes just like the tea we get in the local Morrocan restaurant! I had been trying to dupicate the recipe for us to use at home, rather unsuccessfully. Thank you very much for posting it! A note - we used a kind of small slender glass that my great-grandmother called jelly glasses.
