Ask anyone what they think of when you say peppermint and they’ll probably say gum. But this wonderful herb has so many more uses. Not only does it make a very refreshing tea, but it can also be added to other drinks (coffees, milkshakes, boba, hot chocolate) as well as flavoring ice creams, fruit dishes, chocolates, candies, and a wide variety of desserts. It’s also great to have on hand as a treatment for nausea, indigestion, the common cold, anxiety, and even muscle and nerve pain.
