Mint


I recently inherited a beautiful mint plant and I am absolutely loving the delicious aroma that is emitting around my flat. I am so excited to start using the mint leaves, as I have endless mint recipes that I want to make this summer.




Not only does mint taste amazingly fresh, but it also has plenty health benefits. Mint contains beneficial oils that are good for your stomach ailments that help your digestive track. Which is why it is regularly used as a herbal medicine. So you might want to consider starting your day with a delicious cup of Moroccan mint tea, or even end your day with a fresh and cold mojito.

Here are a few of my favourite mint drinks and dishes I plan to make this summer:
