More Information:

Peppermint is a flowering perennial, usually growing between 12 and 35 inches in height. The herb is easy to grow in moist soil and is commonly cultivated around the world for its many applications in food and medicine. The world's most familiar "mint scent" is the aroma of peppermint. In Greek mythology, Menthe was turned into a peppermint plant when Proserpine, in a jealous rage, found out that Pluto was in love with her. Even earlier, Assyrians used peppermint as an offering to their fire god. Peppermint contains an essential oil that is unique among mints for its quality and flavor. Artificial mint compounds do not effectively duplicate the aroma or medicinal properties. Peppermint leaves make a minty, refreshing drink that is highly satisfying both hot and cold. Our whole Peppermint leaf tea is striking and strong, with a fantastically fresh and cleansing minty flavour. Peppermint leaf cleanses your palate and aids digestion. We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.

Peppermint leaves can be used to brew in a tea. You can add a handful of Peppermint leaves to a big glass of 95°c (203°F) hot water and let it brewed for 2-3 minutes. Gradually increase steeping time and temperature for subsequent brewing. It is also suitable to be brewed with loose leaf green tea, white tea, goji berry, rose buds, jasmine buds, chrysanthemum flowers, chrysathemum buds, honeysuckle, sweet stevia or lemongrass.
