Mojito mint made its claim to fame in Cuba’s world-renowned cocktail, the Mojito. This refreshing mint is much more subtle in flavour than other mints providing a mild and light aroma with a satisfying bite. It is an excellent garden and container companion that is very easy to grow. Its bright, clean flavour is great for seasoning meats, cocktails, desserts, teas and confections. Mint is very versatile and it pairs well with heartier herbs such as rosemary and sage.
