Welcome to yet another episode of the Quali-tea series. Mint is a popular ingredient in several foods and beverages, ranging from teas and alcoholic drinks to sauces, salads and desserts. Using fresh mint and other herbs and spices in cooking can help a person add flavor while reducing their sodium and sugar intake. ​​Throughout history, people have used different species of mint plants in medicine. Different types of mint plants offer a range of antioxidant qualities and potential health benefits, especially for people who have irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

This one is actually one of our favorite herbs in the Waku blend. Not only does it help boost the flavor and benefits of the other herbs, it also gives our tea the freshness it needs to be the perfect herbal tea for either a hot summer day or to drink on a warm autumn night. Take a look at this fun facts, benefits and uses of Mint.
