Teapots

A Moroccan teapot for fresh mint tea? Here you will find teapots in stainless steel and glass, including models suitable for induction. Choose from 0.6 to 2 liters or a complete tea set with glasses.

What should you look for in a Moroccan teapot?

• Capacity: 0.6 to 1 liter makes enough tea for a few glasses; 1.5 to 2 liters allows you to serve a whole table. Many models come in multiple sizes.
• Induction: if you want to use the pot on induction, choose a model that specifically states this, such as the 18/10 stainless steel Amira, the Oriental teapot, or the induction-ready teapot ranging from 0.8 to 2 liters.
• Appearance: classic stainless steel, such as the Fes and the Arabic teapot by Hakal, gold-colored like the Hakal Sultana, or silver or gold like the Ifrane.
• Glass: a heat-resistant glass teapot (0.8 to 1.8 liters) or a glass pot with a filter for loose-leaf tea.
• Tea set: Hakal tea sets combine a stainless steel pot with 6 or 12 glasses.

How to make Moroccan mint tea

In Morocco, the teapot is called a berad. Rinse a tablespoon of green tea briefly with a splash of boiling water and discard it. Add a large bunch of fresh mint and sugar to taste, fill the pot with boiling water, and let the tea steep for a few minutes. Then, pour it into glasses from a height so that a layer of foam forms.

Pour the tea into Moroccan tea glasses and serve everything on a tray.

Frequently asked questions

Can a Moroccan teapot be used on induction?
Not every teapot works on induction, as this requires a magnetic base. Choose a model that mentions induction in the name, such as the Amira or the stainless steel Oriental teapot.

Is there a difference between a teapot and a tea kettle?
No, these are two words for the same pot used to brew and serve tea.

What size teapot do I need?
For yourself or for two people, 0.6 to 1 liter is sufficient. If you often host guests, choose 1.5 or 2 liters.
