Better than an after-dinner mint, Mint Tea is a refreshing balance to Middle Eastern cuisine.  It is a traditional symbol of hospitality and friendship. It is served all day long with or without a meal.  Carnelian Rose's Moroccan Mint Tea is made with Chinese Imperial Gunpowder (green tea) and organic peppermint from Eastern Oregon. Green tea is a good source of anti-oxidants and has anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory benefits. Peppermint promotes healthy digestion and aids in soothing indigestion and the scent assures calm and quiet. Traditionally, Mint Tea is made as a sweetened tea.
