Varieties of Arabic Tea

Arabic tea has a variety of bases. One brewed from black tea, which is the most common. The other is produced using natural ingredients such as sage. This tea is scented with popular herbs such as mint, cinnamon, star anise, and cardamom.

One thing about this tea is that each region of the world has its own method of preparing Arabic tea. Each region modifies the classic Arabic tea recipe, resulting in a unique taste and experience.

Example

Morocco’s Maghrebi mint tea: This tea is brewed from green tea leaves and fresh mint leaves. Sugar is added, sometimes a lot of sugar, along with boiling water. Then it’s served in little cups.

Libya’s Arabic tea with peanuts: Loose leaf black tea is used. The peanuts are then added to the teapot while it is brewing. Cardamom or other spices may be added. After brewing, the tea is served in little cups.
