Spearmint

(Mentha Spicata)

Mint grows as a perennial, herbaceous plant with stature heights of 30 to 130 centimeters. It forms underground foothills and has a pleasant aromatic smell. The taste is sweeter than that of the peppermint and it lacks the pungency of menthol, of which the spearmint contains little. The upright, four-edged, green to reddish stems usually branch in the upper part and are bare to almost bare.

Ingredients
