While wandering through our property this weekend we came upon a large amount of peppermint growing wild. I tasted some and it was quite strong and aromatic. So I thought I would pick some to dry and test it to see what kind of tea it might make. I have tried this once or twice before and always came up with a pale & mild tasting tea. But tonight has been successful, the tea is good, strong and dark. Exactly how you would want it to be and what you would purchase from the store. This one might even be slightly stronger. The initial taste is softer but the peppermint taste lingers in your mouth afterwards. This might be our first marketable product from our "farm". I'm taking orders and RSVP's for Christmas.

Oooh, I'd like to try some even though peppermint tea isn't my favorite!
Now the big question is: Does Avalanche go nuts when you make peppermint tea, and has he decided that this is of a superior quality to your foot lotion??? ;)
When I first saw the heading, I really expected it to be about your cat!
so you should blog more ;)
