Enjoy warm as a soothing drink on cold days or pour over ice for a cooling refreshing beverage to sip on all spring and summer long! Let's make tea!
If you’re thinking “Don’t you just add fresh mint to boiling water and you’ve got mint tea?” think again! If you use fresh mint instead of dried it’s not going to be very flavorful when prepared that way. Why? The drying process breaks down the herb’s cell walls allowing more of the fragrant volatile oils to be released into the water.
