To make mint tea with rosemary & honey
If you want to sweeten the mint tea add 1 spoon for rosemary & honey to your tea cup or mug (or to your preferred flavour).
Fresh mint makes all the difference
The advantage of fresh mint tea is that it tastes delicious, is very easy to make (and a great way to use mint leaves)
There are many different varieties of mint and each will make it’s own unique flavoured tea.
For example there is:
- Apple Mint
- Spearmint (in this recipe)
- Peppermint
- Orange Mint
- The different mint types

How to grow your own mint
Fresh mint leaves add real flavour to many recipes, like the fresh mint tea recipe.
You can buy Fresh Mint in many shops (for example you can buy it on Amazon)
But it’s also very easy to grow at home.
For example the After eight mint on the right.
- Was planted from a plug plant
- Grown in a pot (to stop it taking over the garden)
- And ready to use withing 30 days.
- And will keep growing and growing
If you want to grow your own mint at home then all you need is a plug plant and a pot.
But do note the different mint types all have a unique flavour (Orange mint, Spearmint, Apple Mint, etc.).
