Peppermint - 20 Teabags

Peppermint as a Remedy: “The smell of Mint doth stir up the minde, and the taste to a greedy desire of meat.” (The Herball or Generall Historie of Plantes (1597) - J. Gerard).  “A good posie for students to oft smell. It quickened the brain.” (Herbs and Herb Lore of Colonial America)

Notes: Peppermint was carried to the New World by European immigrants, where it escaped and grew in the wild. Colonists steeped peppermint to drink as a tea, or sugared the leaves to eat as candy.

Brewing Tips: 1 teabag, 195° water, Steep for 5 minutes.

* Please be advised: You should consult with your doctor before making dietary changes. Pregnancy and Lactation: Do not use without the advice of your doctor.
