I wake up for this one! I’ve tried so many varieties of Moroccan Mint tea—“Berber whiskey”, as it’s known over there—and this one tastes more like what I grew to love in North Africa than any other. Sweeten it if you like—I sometimes use rock sugar—but it’s not necessary.

I have an order in with Essencha for this, my near-daily morning wake-up, and it’s on back order! Their web site assures that by the time something’s listed as backordered that it’s probably already on the way to their warehouse, but I’m not sure what I’d do without this in my cupboard.

(Oh, I know exactly what I’ll do: My white Ayurvedic chai from Teavana will be here Saturday and I’ll spoil myself for a little while…)
