A strong, powerful, aromatic herb with a minty flavor. The leaves are green and the small, enchanting flowers are purple. This variety is a well-known flavoring in sauces, tea, liqueurs, and confectionery. Peppermint also has medicinal properties and is used as a healing plant in many parts of the world. The variety contains large amounts of menthol, which is antiseptic and strongly antispasmodic, and helps to counteract inflammation.
Grilled rhubarb with peppermint, vanilla, and cardamom yogurt is a favorite dessert of ours at Florea and is often enjoyed many times during the summer season. This variety is also fantastic for making tea and is excellent in all kinds of mojitos.
If you place a pot of peppermint in your greenhouse or enclosed porch, it will smell absolutely lovely!
