I drank a lot of fresh mint leaves from the garden over the summer, and have had dried leaves sitting in my cupboard for a while now. I’ve been feeling a little stressed since it’s the end of my term and I’ve been heading for the mint stash.
Yum! This isn’t as good as when I had it with fresh leaves… the flavor is so much more intense. I put in about a teaspoon which I think was a good amount. No sweetner or anything added. It’s just flat out mint, and it really tastes so delicious. It’s really soothing my stomach as well.
I wonder if mint is re-steepable…. ;)

I never have had much luck with resteeping herbs. Not like resteeping tea leaves, anyway. I’d be interested in knowing how this fairs for you.
Well, i just resteeped it and it came out pretty good :) The mint flavor isn’t as strong as the first cup so I actually like it a bit better.
