🇲🇦 Tea & Coffee in Morocco: The Kingdom of Mint & Calm





🏺 Where Hospitality Begins with a Teapot

Taste the Mint Tea Beanji Discovered in Morocco!

🍃 The Ceremony of Moroccan Mint Tea

Known as atay, Moroccan mint tea blends:

  • Gunpowder green tea
  • Fresh Nana mint leaves
  • Lots of sugar

It’s poured high into glass cups from silver pots — the higher the pour, the greater the respect. This ritual is part of:

  • Family greetings
  • Market haggling
  • Desert nights under the stars

☕ Coffee in Morocco: A Bold Undercurrent

Espresso and café noir are common, especially in cities. But it’s tea that carries the history, with roots in Berber, Arab, and Andalusian tradition.

🐼 What Would Beanji Brew in Marrakech?

Beanji would sit peacefully in a Riad, sipping warm mint tea under mosaic archways, steam rising like a meditative cloud. Calm is the flavor here.

Because here, chai isn’t just tea — it’s how India says “welcome.” 🫖 Stop #1: Mumbai — Street Chai & City Buzz His first chai came from a clanking stall on a street in Mumbai. The chai wallah was a pro: milk boiling, spices steeping, glasses rattling. He poured the masala chai high from pot to cup like a waterfall — creamy, sweet, and just enough ginger to tickle Beanji’s whiskers. One sip and bam! — caffeine plus warmth? Instant hug. 🌄 Stop #2: Darjeeling — Chai in the Clouds In the cool hill stations of West Bengal, Beanji tasted first flush Darjeeling tea — delicate, floral, lighter than the masala blends. Locals called it the “Champagne of Teas.” Here, chai w...

  Beanji in Turkey: Tea, Talk, and Tulips When Beanji arrived in Turkey, he expected baklava. What he didn’t expect was how deeply tea — or çay — flowed through every corner of life. From the bustling bazaars of Istanbul to the tea-covered hills of Rize, Beanji quickly learned: in Turkey, you’re never alone with a glass of çay . 🕌 Stop #1: Istanbul — Street Tea & Simit Rings Beanji’s first encounter came in Istanbul. As he wandered through the Grand Bazaar, a shopkeeper waved him in — not to sell, but to share. A small, tulip-shaped glass of black tea arrived, hot and deep red. No milk. Just sugar cubes and warm conversation. “This,” the shopkeeper said, “is our welcome.” 🌿 Stop #2: Rize — Where Tea Grows Wild Curious where this magical tea came from, Beanji hopped a train east to Rize , Turkey’s lush tea capital along the Black Sea. There, he hiked through endless green hills covered in tea shrubs. Locals plucked leaves by hand. Beanji even helped — sort of (he mo...
