The Mint Tea Pilgrimage. El Amparo. Icod de los Vinos

Hundreds of pilgrims set off towards the mountain of Icod de los Vinos in August on a quest to pick mint tea leaves. Escorted by the Mint Tea Orchestra, the pilgrims dance and sing as they search for these fragrant leaves, which they then use to adorn the streets of the Amparo neighbourhood during the festivities.
