Our neighbor grew peppermint in some pots but the plants are happily growing to everywhere so they grew from his side to our side.
Today I brought my scissors and cut off a bunch of them and made peppermint tea marrocean style.
So first brew a bit of green tea which we got from some work colleagues of my partner from China. Then throw away the first tea brewed because it has some flavors we don't like. After that put it as much peppermint as fitts in and put a rediciolous amount of sugar on top. Put boiling water on it and brew for some time.
Both hot and cold it's like drinking peppermint candy, delicious!
Fresh tastes much more intense. I really never liked it from dry leaves but love it from fresh.
Oh nice. I am trying to grow some mint (in my apt) for some fresh stuff but I have a big bag of dry leaves that I enjoy making tea with.
