🍃 Moroccan Mint Tea — A Tradition of Hospitality 🍃

Moroccan tea, known as “Atay,” is one of the most cherished traditions in Morocco. Introduced through the ancient trade routes in the 18th century, green tea was blended with fresh mint and sugar, becoming a symbol of warmth, generosity, and gathering.

Traditionally prepared with Chinese gunpowder green tea and fresh spearmint, Moroccan tea is slowly poured from a height to create its signature foam — a sign of respect and craftsmanship.

In Morocco, tea is served for every occasion:☀️ Morning welcome👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Family gatherings🎉 Celebrations & weddings🤝 Business meetings🌙 After dinner conversations

More than a drink, Moroccan tea represents connection, hospitality, and taking time to share moments together.

At Moltaqa, we continue this tradition daily with fresh mint tea served in traditional Moroccan style.
