More and more people are turning to peppermint tea as an alternative to high-caffeine tea and coffee. For others, the nearest they get to mint leaves , but peppermint has a lot more to offer than just a refreshing beverage. It is best known for its muscle relaxing properties, which make it excellent for helping with irritable bowel syndrome and for aiding digestion, which is why it's so good at the end of a meal instead of an espresso. Peppermint has also recently been found to help treat cold sores because of its anti-viral properties; either drink it as tea or crush up the leaves and dab on the oil to the affected area. |
