Tea with Sheba (Wormwood)

Community Feedback

Welcome to my table! A winter variation of Moroccan tea. Instead of mint, a sprig of Sheba (Absinthe/Wormwood) is added for its warming, slightly bitter flavor. Rooted deeply in our Berber and Andalusian heritage, this is more than just a dish—it's a story told through spices. Trust me, you'll need plenty of crusty bread to soak up every last drop.
