This thin-leaved spearmint has a fresh flavor that brings cooked dishes, teas, and mixed drinks (such as the famous mint julep!) to a new, delicious level. ‘Julep’ is easy to grow, requiring little maintenance, so you’ll have more time to enjoy your favorite recipes. Begin harvesting as soon as shoots appear in spring by cutting sprigs or leaves with scissors. Young, tender leaves are more flavorful than old, woody ones. It freezes and dries well.
