Arabic tea with fresh mint, known as shai bil na’ana’a, is my favorite drink to share with friends. This simple mint tea is easy to make at home with a few ingredients: boiling water, black loose-leaf tea, fresh mint, and sugar or honey to your liking. Throughout the Middle East and parts of the Mediterranean, hot tea is a comfort, a social drink, and a means of getting to know one another. Learn how to make and serve Arabic tea as they do in Egypt and parts of the Middle East!

  1. Got to try some of this on a trip to Israel. We visited the jewelry shop owned by those guys who helped find the Dead Sea Scrolls.

    Best. Tea. EVER!

  2. Lucky friend of your's. 🙂 Yes, there is a restaurant here that will serve it (often without your purchasing as a sign that you are welcome here).

  3. It looks and sounds wonderful! I'll definitely try this! We even have the correct tea glasses from our trips to Turkey and Egypt! And, I love your vintage pot! I'd use that one too! Thank you!
