Add some cool, refreshing tingle to your dishes and drinks. Make a lemon-mint risotto; muddle into a julep or mojito; whip up a dressing for salads or herb paste for chicken. Make your mint last longer by chopping it up and freezing it with some water in an ice cube tray...the perfect addition to your lemonade or ice tea!
