Peppermint tea (Mentha piperita) is one of the world's most popular herbal teas, loved for its crisp, cooling flavour and gentle digestive benefits. These certified organic peppermint leaves produce a bright, refreshing infusion with the unmistakable menthol aroma that peppermint is known for. Traditionally used to ease bloating, mild indigestion, and stomach discomfort, organic peppermint tea is an everyday essential for the herbal tea cupboard.
Key Benefits
- Digestive comfort: Traditionally used to help relieve bloating, mild indigestion, and occasional stomach discomfort. One of the most widely used digestive herbs worldwide.
- Refreshing flavour: Rich in natural menthol, giving peppermint tea its characteristic cool, clean taste. Equally enjoyable hot or iced.
- Soothing and calming: Traditionally used to help ease mild tension and promote relaxation. The aroma alone can feel uplifting.
- Certified organic: Dried peppermint leaves grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers for a clean, pure cup of tea.
- Versatile herb: Use as a tea, in cooking and baking, in homemade skincare, or as a natural insect deterrent. Also popular in home brewing.
Peppermint tea: Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried peppermint to a cup of boiling water. Cover and steep for 5 to 10 minutes. Strain and enjoy. Covering the cup while steeping helps retain the volatile menthol oils. For iced peppermint tea, brew a strong infusion and pour over ice.
Blending: Peppermint is a classic pairing with Chamomile for a soothing after-dinner blend. For digestive support, try combining with Ginger Root. It also adds a refreshing lift to Lemon Balm tea.
Peppermint is a natural hybrid of spearmint and watermint, first described in 1753 by Carl Linnaeus. In Greek mythology, the nymph Minthe was turned into the mint plant, which is how the genus Mentha got its name.
Peppermint essential oil is toxic to cats and should be kept away from them. The dried herb in small amounts is less concentrated, but it is best to keep peppermint tea away from cats as a precaution. Dogs can generally tolerate small amounts.
