It is believed that the English brought tea to Moroccan Sultans in earlier times in the 17th-18th century from their journey from Asia back to England as gifts. From the Kings went to noble families and to ordinary Moroccan. Now Mint Tea is a national drink where Moroccans enjoy within families, offered to guests and in every occasion.
