Tonight I am drinking a tea brewed from a peppermint plant I bought to put in my herb garden. It was called Strawberry Peppermint and when I tasted the leaves I could taste strawberry along with the peppermint!

I dried a few leaves and am just having them now. It’s got a lighter peppermint flavour than plain peppermint teas and a light strawberry finish. Love it! I hope my plant grows really big so I can harvest lots of leaves for tea.

Flavors: Peppermint, Strawberry

That sounds so awesome. I used to grow pineapple sage. I wonder if I could make a good tisane from that? I had better hurry to the seed store!

There are some decent teas to be made from the herbs. I also have Chocolate Peppermint plant. It’s really tiny right now so will have to wait until it’s a bit bigger.

Bio

Green teas are my favourite teas but I also enjoy: white, some herbal,rooibos, raw pu’erh, light oolongs, a little bit of black , and a little bit of ripe pu’erh. I have moved away from artificial flavourings and there’s hardly anything left in my cabinet with artificial flavouring or colours. It is mostly straight teas or tea blends.
