Fresh Mint Leaf

Mentha arvensis

There is perhaps nothing better than the palate-cleansing, invigorating freshness of fresh mint leaf.

Mentha arvensis is also known as wild mint, corn mint, or field mint. It tends to have a slightly milder and sweeter aroma and flavour than some of its more pungent minty counterparts, and carries many of the same benefits.
