Thé à la Menthe is a specialty from North Africa and is traditionally drunk throughout the day in all Maghreb countries. Fine Chinese green tea mixed with fresh peppermint. The original recipe: 1 heaped teaspoon per cup in the teapot, briefly bring the tea to a boil, serve with fresh spearmint leaves in the tea glass and heavily sweetened. Of course, you can also steep the tea only briefly and remove the infusion, as with any other tea. In any case, sweeten the finished tea heavily, and the fresh spearmint leaves should never be omitted. Insiders boil the fresh tea and add the sugar directly to the boiling water. This splits the sugar molecules into glucose and fructose, making the tea even sweeter and more intense. An ideal thirst quencher on hot summer days!
