Refreshing Mint Juice Recipes
Mint is an interesting herb. Just as the roots of this sprawling, powerful plant can easily overtake any other herb planted nearby, so can the intense flavor mask any other in its glass.
To make the most of your mint, remember to match the intensity of the mint to the boldness of the other flavors present. When used properly, mint can bring out the best of otherwise mild, unintrusive flavors or provide a refreshing kick to louder ones, leaving behind an unforgettable impression.
