Say hello to the perfect refreshing warm weather tea.

Oh how I love this tea. You see, I’m not normally a tea drinker. Tea has just never been my thing, especially warm tea. I want to love it, but I just don’t. Or well, I didn’t…until I started making iced tea and adding in lots of lemon. Once I started drinking my tea cold, I really began to love it. Traditionally, Moroccan tea is served warm, but I decided to make an iced version, with a hint of lemon and topped off with just a little sparkling water for some fizzy action. It’s super refreshing and perfect for a sunny day.

If you’re serving up this tea for bunch, you can add a splash of vodka if you like for a boozier version!

  1. Fresh mint makes the best tea! Try adding it to black teas, like English Breakfast or even Earl Grey, for a fragrant twist. The addition of vodka and sparkling water would make this something unique to serve at a summer gathering. Who wouldn’t want that!

  2. Hi Tieghan,
    I am same as you. I also don’t like to drink much tea but after going through this recipe of making Iced Moroccan Mint Tea, I found that I must try it at least once.
    I am thinking about the benefits of drinking this tea, I hope you can add that part as well in your article.
    Keep the good work up.
    Cheers!
