Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 cups water filtered
- 2 tbsp loose green tea leaves or 2 green tea bags
- 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves packed, plus extra for garnish
- 2 tbsp sugar or to taste
- 1 cup whole milk or plant-based alternative
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract optional
Notes
For a stronger tea flavor, steep for up to 7 minutes. The tea base can be made ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days. Reheat gently before adding steamed milk. For a dairy-free version, use oat milk or almond milk. Adjust sugar to taste - traditional Maghrebi tea is quite sweet, but you can reduce to 1 tablespoon per serving if preferred.
