The authentic Cuban mint - the crucial ingredient necessary for the famed mojito cocktail!
Mint is one of the easiest and most vigorous herbs you can grow—just give it rich, moist soil and part to full sun (or bright shade in hot climates) and it will spread happily. Plant it in a sunken pot or container to keep its runners from taking over the garden, water consistently, and pinch tips often to encourage bushy growth and the strongest flavor. A single plant will reward you with fresh leaves all season long!
Uses for Fresh & Dried Mint
- Fresh: Mojitos, mint juleps, tabbouleh, Thai/Vietnamese dishes, cucumber salads, yogurt sauces (tzatziki/raita), fruit salads, iced tea, lemonades, garnishes.
- Tea: Steep a handful of fresh leaves (or 1–2 tsp dried) in hot water for a soothing digestive tea—great hot or iced.
- Drying: Hang small bundles upside-down in a dark, airy spot for 1–2 weeks, or dehydrate at 95°F until crisp. Crumble dried leaves for tea blends, seasoning rubs, or Middle Eastern za’atar.
- Freezing: Chop fresh leaves and freeze in ice-cube trays with water or olive oil—perfect single servings for winter cooking or cocktails.
- Other: Mint pesto, homemade toothpaste/mouthwash, bath soaks, or natural insect repellent (rub leaves on skin).
Mint is incredibly versatile—one plant gives you fresh flavor from spring until frost and dried stores for the whole year!
Sold in a 2.5" pot.
