The art of Moroccan mint tea
Why tea is poured from high, and what it means when a host offers you a glass.
A gesture of welcome
Green tea, fresh mint and sugar — offered to guests in homes, shops and riads alike. Accepting a glass is a simple way to say thank you for the welcome.
Pouring from high
Tea is poured from a height to aerate it and create a light foam on top. It is often poured back and forth into the pot before serving.
