Peppermint (Mentha piperita)

Cooling, calming and best known for its soothing effects on the digestive system. Peppermint can be effective for many things including indigestion, bloating and gas. A delicious after meal drink that can be enjoyed hot or cold. 

Mints are a great introduction to herbal teas, and they can be mixed with many other herbs to make them more enjoyable. If you like you can add in a squeeze of local honey, delicious!

Mix it up by adding in some sweet Spearmint, or Nettle for even more benefits!

Opting for loose dried herbs over mass-produced teabags allows for a richer, fresher flavour and the flexibility to tailor your infusions to suit your needs. Whether brewing a soothing tea or making a simple herbal ointment — loose herbs give you flexibility and optimal quality every time.

Use 1-2 tsp per cup of hot (not boiling) water. Steep for 5-10 minutes, covered. Add a little honey if you desire. Enjoy hot or cold!
