Served several times a day, tea is a matter of tradition and refinement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ritual of preparing tea is almost sacred. It begins with the careful washing of <strong>fresh mint leaves, followed by the infusion of green tea, often of the &#8220;gunpowder&#8221; type<\/strong>. The sugar, added in large quantities, and the mint are then mixed in a metal teapot, usually silver, known as the <strong>&#8220;berrad&#8221;<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The way the tea is served is just as important as its preparation. The tea is poured into small glasses from a height, which allows a fine foam to form on top. This gesture, repeated three times, symbolizes welcome and <strong>hospitality<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The<strong> mint tea<\/strong> often accompanies <strong>social moments<\/strong>, conversations among friends or after meals, serving both as a digestif and a convivial pause. It is also an indispensable element during special occasions such as weddings and festivities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those who wish to learn more about this warm and welcoming tradition, our comprehensive article offers a deep dive into the world of Moroccan tea, explaining its history, its regional variations, and its importance in Morocco&#8217;s social fabric.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3361,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[451],"tags":[2,96,13,229,118,119,114,58,177,629,628,221],"class_list":["post-6651","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tradition","tag-abaya","tag-art","tag-caftan","tag-chiquie","tag-culture","tag-food","tag-histoire","tag-maroc","tag-royaume","tag-the-2","tag-themarocain","tag-voyage","latest_post"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
