Moroccan spearmint (Mentha spicata var. crispa) is a compact variety of mint that can be used to flavour food, make tea or simply scent your patio! Moroccan mint is extremely popular in the Arab nations, where the drink often has a ceremonial purpose. As it combines imported ingredients (tea from China and imported sugar) with a local ingredient ( fresh mint), Moroccan mint tea is an early example of globalization in cuisine. The tea, is the subject of this proverb: 'The first glass is as bitter as life, the second is as strong as love, the third is as soothing as death'.
