Description
Peppermint or Mentha Piperita is within the large family of Mint, the species with the most pronounced mint flavor. Did you know that this mint species is a true cultivated plant (crossing of different mint species) and does not occur in the wild ?
Most peppermint on the (organic) market comes from non-European countries. However, we prefer the slightly more expensive and quality peppermint from Germany or Austria.

So you can easily prepare a cup of healthy peppermint organic tea:

Due to the menthol not suitable for children! As a substitute herb, one can use Catnip or Herb Mint. These have the same properties as Peppermint but much milder.
