Classic Arabian Marimia Recipe:

Ingredients:

• Handful of sage (whole leaves)
• 2 Ceylon tea bags
• 1/4 – 1/2 cup sugar

Boil sage in a teapot full of water. Once water reaches a full boil remove from heat. Add two tea bags to sage mixture and let stand for 2-5 minutes. (Dont let tea get too strong or dark.) Add sugar to taste – approximately 1/4 to 1/2 cup per pot depending upon desired sweetness. (Alternately, sugar can be added to individual cups.) Pour into your favorite cups and enjoy! Please note: it is not necessary to strain tea as it is customary to allow a few loose leaves in cup. Loose leaves will eventually settle to bottom cup.
