Cafe Hafa’s mint tea
Posted on March 3rd, 2008 by tea bloggerPosted in Green Tea, herbal tea |
Tangier’s Cafe Hafa, on Morocco’s northern coast, has been serving mint tea since 1921
Mint Tea is also called Touareg tea and is a flavoured tea prepared in northern Africa and in Arabian countries. Mint tea is central to social life in Maghreb countries. The serving of mint tea can take a ceremonial form, especially when prepared for a guest. Whereas cooking is women’s business, the tea is a male affair: the head of family prepares it and serves to the guest, usually, at least three glasses of tea.

That’s very interesting. I didn’t know serving tea was a male affair, as opposed to a woman’s, in northern Africa and Arabian countries.
