Spearmint resembles peppermint but tends to have a more rapid growth cycle. The lance-shaped leaves are generally stemless, and the flower spikes are narrow and pointed rather than thick and blunt. This herbal tea is made from the dried leaves collected before the flowers are fully developed. Cool, refreshing, crisp infusion with a sweet, menthol aroma.
