MINT TEA AND MOROCCAN PASTRIES

Marrakech is full of delightful little places to sit, and people watch whilst sipping traditional mint tea.

The colourful, boho decor and tempting pastries are the perfect way to take a much needed breather from the chaos of the souks.

Shopping in the medina is a fascinating experience, but it can be overwhelming.

I found out that taking a break and pacing myself was the best way to thoroughly enjoy my time looking around and navigating the maze of the souks.

I especially loved the sweets and pastries on offer. They were absolutely delicious and complimented the refreshing mint tea perfectly.

There were so many to choose from, and I decided to treat myself to a selection of smaller pastries to see which were my favourites.

If you are shopping for gifts or spending time in the colourful, vibrant souks, I would highly recommend that you take some time out to rest and pace yourself.

Sitting outside a cute little tea shop and sampling something light and tasty is a great way to engage in the culture of Morrocco and its people.

There are plenty of places offering mint tea and pastries dotted in and around the main square.

The sweets are an absolute treat, but you will be spoilt for choice.

Part of the pleasure of exploring the medina is finding hidden gems where you can sit and gather yourself before venturing further.

Marrakech is known for its delicious pastries, and they’re a nice snack that won’t spoil your appetite for later in the day.

A few suggestions are,

. Medina Kawa Marrakech.

. La Patisserie de la Terracce Spices

. Boughaz Coffee in the Kasbah.
