Best peppermint leafs according to redditors

Every night I have a base of either quinoa or rice, prepared in my rice cooker with various vegetables and spices. If rice, I'll roll it up with nori for homemade veggie rolls.

With dinner I have a 12 ounce glass of water with two tablespoons of flax and one tablespoon of chia.

I buy my pinto beans and black beans loose in bulk at the local grocery store when picking up my vegetables, usually around 5 or 6 pounds of each at a time.

Cumin, garlic powder, tahini, and dry garbanzo beans go for a good homemade hummus in a food processor. Needs a fresh lemon or two squeezed into the tahini. Original recipe had olive oil and salt, I leave out the oil entirely and either cut the salt down to a dash or none at all.

I keep oats and almond meal on hand to make pdb cookies with the same food processor, just add a banana or two, cinnamon, nutmeg, almond butter, and raisins if you like. The original recipe called for dates and I said eat me I'm doing raisins.

I got peppermint in bulk to make tea with, both by itself as well as mixing with chamomile, mugwort, etc.

I keep almost all of the above in these convenient cereal containers to both extend shelf life, shelf space, and remove any branding or advertising. Mason jars are also awesome!

Don't forget you can dehydrate your own food as well!

Edit: I don't work for Amazon, I just live no-car and order like this to survive!

In my opinion it would be better than a blend because you can control the quality of the tea and the mint, and make it "just right" to the level of mint you want. I grew mint in my garden for years and often made mint tea out of it, I imagine it would be delicious with a good rich black tea.

This dried spearmint has good reviews, and would make so so many cups of tea. People even say it makes better tea than blends in the questions section.

You can really get a good recipe down like 1tsp mint 1tsp black tea for 3 minutes, and play with it until it's perfect a little longer brew time, a little less mint, so on.

Dried, crushed peppermint leaf works well for my sinuses. I've been using this stuff from Amazon : www.amazon.com/Frontier-Peppermint-Certified-Organic-Ounce/dp/B001VNGNSS

Amazon does list organic herbs that can be used for tea. I use those for cold brew.

Peppermint for 1 pound is around $10

Hibiscus Petals for 1 pound also around $10

I take my peppermint in leaf form instead of oil, and make tea (technically a tisane, IIRC) with it. I really like this loose leaf which I steep at 1 1/4 tsp for 16 oz of boiling water. That 1lb bag lasts me a year of 1-2 daily cups, I put some into a sealed jar for daily use then double wrap the remainder for storage.
