Moroccan-style mint tea poured from a height, a watermelon-and-feta salad, a mint syrup stirred into lemonade: spearmint is the mint that shows up all summer. Milder and sweeter than peppermint, it brews a gentle, cooling cup and chops easily into fresh dishes. Steep the dried leaves hot or iced, muddle them into drinks, or fold them into salads, yogurt sauces, and fresh peas.

Spearmint is the classic leaf of Moroccan mint tea, brewed strong and sweet and served through the day as a gesture of welcome. If you grow it, you know it takes over a garden, which makes it the mint to be generous with. Simple syrups, salads, and cold pitchers all use it up fast. Where a recipe wants a soft, sweet mint rather than a sharp menthol punch, this is the leaf to reach into.

Single ingredient: whole dried spearmint leaves. Caffeine-free, no sugar, no preservatives, and vegan. Packed fresh to keep it sweet and green.

Common Questions

How do I brew it?

Use one teaspoon of leaves per eight ounces of water. Heat fresh filtered water to around 200°F, pour it over the leaves, and steep for five minutes for the best flavor. Use fresh leaves each time you brew. For a Moroccan-style cup, brew it strong and sweeten to taste.

What do I do with it besides tea?

Plenty. Steep it into a simple syrup for lemonade and cocktails, toss the leaves into a watermelon-and-feta salad, stir them through yogurt or fresh peas, or fold chopped leaves into a fruit salad. Its soft sweetness makes it friendlier in savory and cold dishes than sharper peppermint.

What is the difference between spearmint and peppermint?

Spearmint is milder, sweeter, and less icy, which is why it is the classic choice for cooking, salads, and Moroccan-style tea. Peppermint is bolder and cooler, with a sharp menthol bite better suited to a crisp, cooling cup on its own.

Does it have caffeine?

No. Spearmint is a caffeine-free leaf infusion with no black or green tea, so it suits an evening cup or an all-day iced pitcher.
