Peppermint Leaves
Botanical name: (Mentha)
Also Known As: peppermint oil, mint, balm mint, brandy mint, green mint.
Peppermint tea has healing effects because of the menthol that it contains. It is said to ease such problems as irritable bowel syndrome, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea and headaches. Its minty flavor can take the edge off bad breath. It is also said to control mild asthma, manage stress and ward off the common cold.
The menthol in a hot cup of herbal tea can help loosen congestion and relieve coughing associated with colds and allergies. Peppermint tea thins the mucus and acts as an expectorant to break up coughs, and can also relieve dry cough and sore throat. Peppermint Tea has many other herbs added to the blend to give you a fully balanced cup of tea.
