Beni Mellal (Standard Moroccan Tamazight: ⴰⵢⵜ ⵎⵍⵍⴰⵍ, Arabic: بني ملال, romanized: bni məllal) is a Moroccan city located in the country's interior. It is the capital of the Béni Mellal-Khénifra Region . It sits at the foot of Jbel Tassemit (2247m), and next to the plains of Beni Amir.
The walls of the city go back to Moulay Ismail, in 1688, as well as the Kasbah Bel-Kush but most of the city is quite modern and forms an important economic centre for the region particularly in the areas of petrochemical production as well as textile manufacturing which forms the backbone of the wider community. Local agricultural products as oranges, olives, figs etc. find their way to the market via Beni Mellal.
The city was first called Ismali back in 1688, since Moulay Ismail, the second ruler of the Moroccan Alaouite Dynasty, built the fortresses of Tadla (remains still visible today). The ruler also constructed the well known Kasba Ras el Ain of this area, which overlooks the whole city along with the agricultural surroundings. It is made from stone and is close to the spring of Ain Asserdoun. The Kasbah was believed to have been built in order to protect this spring and to protect the surrounding area. The spring of Ain Asserdoun means the source of the mule or the eye of the mule. In the area of Soumaa a zaouia exists dated back to the 16th century, which is still used for religious purposes. It was the meeting of these two cities, Tadla and Soumaa, which formed the name Beni Mellal which translated means Day.

-- For a large Moroccan teapot --
A large handful of fresh mint
2-3 teaspoons loose green tea (Gunpowder or Chun Mee)
3 tablespoons white granulated sugar, or to taste
Boiling water (to fill up 3/4 of tea pot + 2 extra cups for the process)
STEPS:
1- Boil the water.
2- Add the green tea to a large teapot and 1 cup of boiling water. Let rest for 1 minute then pour the water into a cup. Set aside. In Morocco, this tea water is called the "spirit of the tea", which means it contains the first burst of flavors from the tealeaves.
3- Add another cup of boiling water to the teapot, swish around, then pour the water into a cup. Discard. This step is to clean the tea and you will notice that the water is darker the second time.
4- Pour back the "spirit of the tea" into the teapot. Add boiling water to the teapot until it is three quarters full.
5- Place the teapot on the stove and, on low heat, bring the tea to a boil.
6- Remove the teapot from the heat and immediately add the mint leaves and sugar to the teapot.
7- Mix all the ingredients by pouring the tea into a glass and then pouring it back into the teapot. Repeat this step 2-3 times.
8- Serve immediately. While pouring, hold the teapot high above the glass, to get the distinctive foam of Moroccan mint tea!
