Traditionally, Moroccan Mint tea is served sweetened with sugar, although you can always substitute honey, agave, syrup, whatever sweetener you prefer. Served to guests, this tea is a drink of hospitality and is generally served three times.
The green tea unfurls into large leaves, with a pale ecru cup and a strong minty flavor.
Ingredients: Gunpowder green tea and spearmint.
Brew tea at 180º - steep for 2-3 minutes.

Real Green Tea Ice Cream
Recipe from Cooking with Tea by Robert Wemischner and Diana Rosen
Ingredients:
2 cups whole milk
¼ cup Moroccan Mint Tea
2 cups heavy cream
¾ cup granulated sugar
Finely grated zest of 1 lime
Few drops of pure vanilla extract
Preparation:
In a heavy saucepan, bring the milk and tea to a boil. Remove from heat and infuse for 1 minute. Pour through a fine-meshed sieve into a heatproof bowl, pressing hard on the tea leaves to extract as much of the liquid as possible. Return to a clean saucepan. Add the cream, sugar, and lime zest. Bring to a boil and stir until sugar dissolves completely. Cool, then add the vanilla extract. Chill until cold, then freeze using a machine of your choice, following the manufacturer's directions.
