My favorite kind of mint. "Melissa officinalis" or lemon balm! 😁  

that sounds delicious. may have to try.  

I love the fresh mint. It grows in my yard year after year... 

Looks like a touch of mint...nice, Melissa🤙🏽 

br_e_co, it was nice, but I think maybe I added too much cocoa powder, because it was a bit bitter. 😁  

acomandr and John, yes! It grows like CRAZY in my garden! I have a couple kinds of mint, and this one actually smells like lemon. It is great for flavoring water! 😁  

Love mint, but it's so invasive. Had to move it to pots. "Step away from the garden!" 🌿🌿🌿  

Erquiaga, you are so right! Thankfully, where my herb "garden" is I don't really care if it spreads all over. 🤷‍♂️ I don't even care when it spreads in the grass... Better than the typical "weeds" in my very imperfect lawn back there! 😊  

💕 🧓💕  

You have a green thumb, I tried growing mint but it keeps dying. Looks bright and healthy❣️ 

Moo, my secret for growing herbs... Roughly transplant into the most inhospitable spot, don't water after the first season, and forget they exist. 😁 I don't deserve any kind of good results. ❤️ 

if ignorance is Bliss, my garden aught to thrive🤩🤪🤩 

Haha I tried that too... I’ve killed succulents 😆  

Looks and sounds delicious 😋 I love mint and yours is beautiful 😍  

Black thumbs here ;-) 

Yum! 

Thank you guys! ♥️ 

That looks so delicious! 

silkian, looks can be deceiving! 😁 Actually, it wasn't bad, but I'd rather have had some lovely, chocolate cream pudding with a big mound of whip cream. This was healthier! 😁  

Then you have very pretty and good smelling weeds, Chris!!! 😁
