The mint tea (Arabic: شاي بالنعناع (chai n'anā bil), or more commonly الأتاي ( Does tai) in dialect) is the traditional drink of the Maghreb countries. This tea is achieved by the infusion of green tea leaves (such as gunpowder) and Spearmint (type Nanah), accompanied by lots of sugar. It is served hot.
native of Morocco, it has spread throughout the Maghreb. It is not only drunk with meals, but throughout the day. It is, more specifically, the drink of hospitality. Unlike the kitchen, made by women, the tea is traditionally man's business: prepared by the head of the family, it is served to the guest, and not refuse. We ready to drink a lot of virtues, including tonic and digestive.
Its preparation and its taste varies according to regions and countries of the Maghreb. It is, thus, sweeter in the north than in southern Morocco. In some areas, we add some pine nuts. Mint is normally Nanah (mint nana common in North Africa).
