Mint Leaf

Mint [leaf] is from the leaf of the mint plant, very aromatic and flavorful, and the base or additive for many products that can be sweet or savory.  Leaf cut and sifted mint such as this variety can be used as a tea itself to gain relief from indigestion, stomach or intestinal pain and bloating.  It can also be added as an ingredient to a wide variety of recipes such as chocolate brownies, smoothies, tea blends, coffee blends etc.

A small sachet of mint is also known for it's bug and rodent repellent properties, lasting longer in such cases than a mint oil.  Add mint to your potpourri pot or bag of lavender to freshen a bedroom or bathroom, or give a festive scent during holiday seasons.
