In Morocco and countries like Mali and Senegal, tea consumption is relatively recent. It dates back to the 18th century and became popular at the end of the 19th century with the arrival of the British. Moroccans were completely won over by its flavor. It's worth noting that they were already drinking a wide variety of herbal teas and infusions.

Sultan Moulay Ismail became familiar with this beverage, as tea was among the gifts offered by the British and the Dutch. He greatly appreciated its taste and introduced it to Morocco upon his arrival.

The tradition is to bring two trays, one containing crystal glasses and two teapots, the other including boxes for tea, mint, other plants, a sugar loaf, and a hammer to break it, as well as a vial of orange blossom water.

The tea was poured by raising the teapot very high to aerate it and create a frothy texture. Don't forget to serve the tea with cakes or dried fruit.
