Mint

Mint has dark green, slightly furry, tender leaves on a square stem. The flavor is refreshing and bright, with a sweet, cool sensation.
Always popular, Mint matches beautifully with citrus and cream flavors and can be used in iced teas, juices, cocktails, desserts, jellies, and sweets. It lights up a garden salad or dressing, and makes an exceptional addition to sauces, especially when vegetables, lamb, or chicken are involved. It is also a classic garnish.
