The Chinese tea house I mentioned you want to give a try- I am not sure if
it is still operating! But try...

Many north African restaurnts will serve tea like this, or different blends
under name like "Tunisian tea" etc. There is no speciality tea house that
will, except maybe one in Jerusalem that I heard of - I'll check the
details.

Also, in most restaurants and cafes in Israel you can get tea (from
teabags) with fresh mint leaves (called "nana") added.

There is a new "proper" tea house in Jerusalem that is mentioned in the
thread - I have yet to visit it, and a new one in Tel Aviv, which I also
have yet to visit.
