I've never heard of this plant before but would like to try growing

it. I haven't been able to find the seeds....does it have another name?

It's actually a peppermint(variation) occasionally walmart has it when they

get their mints in at the beginning of the year for the spring planting

season. It's just a hybrid like pineapple mint. I'll see if I can find

some information on it for you. It's very reminiscent of grasshopper

cookies, girlscout thin mints and the like. Although it can be too strong

if you use too many leaves to make the tea. I usually make regular tea and

squish some of the leaves in the pitcher.

 

And had I not killed all my mints over the summer last year I'd send you

some.

I bought some last year from Richter's in Ontario.

It is doing great, babies have already made it to the farmers market. It reminds

me of After 8 chocolate/mint wafers. Yum!

I'll gladly send some to people in Canada, but is it even possible to send live

plants into the USA without a great deal of hassle?

I cant seem to find it anywhere. I was just hoping to get some

clipping from someone and try it myself. Maybe with some roots and I

can try to replant it. I would be able to do a swap for this. ty,

You can buy it from

http://www.richters.com

 

They sell it as plant or seeds I believe, they are in Canada but ship

worldwide and guarantee your plants arrive alive, lol..

Oh yes, I have been reading the title thinking it a recipe.

I do like a good mint garden which often includes those that are more of a

sage like the pineapple sage mint, the chocolate mint and such.

I also love the eau de cologne mint, so pungent and similar in shape to the

delicious Vietnamese mint.

LOL

If you're willing to pay for priority shipping, I can mail a few small

plants. I also own a herb trading list.

right now all I have to offer is chocolate mint. If you're willing to wait

a week or so, I'll have some catnip to offer. Towards the end of summer,

I'll have to thin out my purple irises. Want some ? :)

>Chocolate Mint can be used in beverages.

 

to make tea

as a garnish in iced tea

used in fruit salads

made into a bath tea

used to garnish hot chocllate

 

make a tea infusion and use the tea to replace some the liquid in

brownies or cookies or cakes

 

place leaves in filter basket with coffee to make chocolate mint coffee

 

infusion in cream or milk and then use to make ice cream with the liquid

 

 

 

~Hope these ideas help

My chocolate mint is just wonderful, seems great & is tasty in a salad just

throwing in a couple of leaves. I found mine at a local nursery at the

beginning of the season.
