Moroccan Mint Tea
1.
First prepare the materials and a teapot (because it is vanilla tea, a transparent glass teapot looks more beautiful, or a traditional Moroccan silver teapot is also very good). Chinese green tea is fine for tea. Youyou is in Japan, so I use sencha instead (sencha is also a kind of green tea) to make it taste good.
2.
Boil a pot of boiling water first, then put the tea leaves in the teapot, and pour about 150ml of boiling water. If you are using ordinary green tea, it is recommended to wash the tea once. It is better not to wash the tea. Youyou uses Japanese Sencha. The best green tea in Japan is called "Gamaro", followed by "Sencha". Therefore Youyou did not wash the tea. If you are using very high-quality green tea (such as the good Longjing or Biluochun), it is recommended to put mint leaves and sugar first, and then add the top-quality tea when the water temperature drops a little.
3.
Next, put sugar and mint leaves. You need to put a lot of sugar, but Youyou doesn't like to be too sweet, and the amount of mint is not too much, so I only put 30g, the sweetness is enough for Youyou, if you think it is not enough, you can add more sugar.
4.
For mint, it is best to make Moroccan mint tea with mentha viridis. If not, use regular mint instead. If you like the mint flavor, you can add more and less at the beginning. If you feel that the flavor is not enough, you can add more later and adjust it according to your taste. In Morocco, it is usually sufficient (mint leaves to fill the entire teapot). Crush it a little when you put it, or pinch it with your hands to let the mint leaves release their fragrance.
5.
Finally, fill the teapot with boiling water, wait until the sugar is fully dissolved, shake it well, and the tea is ready.

The Moroccan mint tea you have drunk before is in this silver Berrad pot. Isn't it beautiful? Finally, I wish you a good mood!
