i took some loose mint tea (which i had been saving in the fridge, i reuse my tea leaves 1-2 times) and added a few fresh mint leaves to it…and wow

around 2am i decided to make tea, and then i remembered all the herbs i had outside, so i took a flashlight and plucked maybe 6-8 small leaves of four different mint varieties. i let them brew with my tea and then removed the fresh leaves and let them hang out in the pitcher of tea. so im drinking a large glass of mint tea right now and the flavor is just so much more fresh and complex! i make 5 cups of tea and i only added a few leaves so you can imagine how powerful fresh, homegrown mint is

boy this is so much fun who knew herbs could be so fun guys wow

i am going to have the best time ever experimenting

i think i want a pineapple sage plant too…

will they let me taste test herbs at the store? i wonder…that would be perfect…
