My Go-To
I LOVE peppermint tea and have bought Arbor Tea's bulk size twice. Most days I drink this two times a day. It helps to settle an upset stomach and it is so refreshing!
The best peppermint comes from the northwestern USA. The pure, moist mountain air of the spring and early summer growing season gives this organic herbal tea some of the highest volatile oil counts of any member of the mint family. Compared to our organic spearmint, this is quite a bit stronger and not as sweet. As a bonus, it is naturally caffeine-free! Historically, peppermint has been used as a stewing herb by ancient Hebrews and has been found in 3000-year-old Egyptian tombs. An interesting way to use this organic herbal tea is to place a sachet of peppermint leaves in your bath water - perfect for cooling off on a hot summer's day.
Ingredients: organic USA peppermint
The pacific northwest is home to some of the most prolific and best tasting herbs in the United States. Sometimes referred to as Cascadia, this region includes the states of Oregon and Washington and is bounded by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Rocky Mountains the east. The various climatic regions (from the mild summers with abundant rainfall in the mountains to the broad, dry plateaus) create the perfect growing conditions for many different types of herbs. Environmentalism is prominent throughout the region resulting in a strong commitment to organic and sustainable farming, and home to one of the original organic certifying bodies, Oregon Tilth. In our efforts to source as many products as possible from right here in the USA, we are delighted to offer herbal teas from this region and plan to continue to increase our selection of domestically grown herbs over the next few years.
At Arbor Teas, we believe tea should be brewed to suit your personal taste. We’re happy to make recommendations to get you started, but don’t hesitate to experiment! When brewing your tea, your main considerations are tea quantity, water temperature, and steeping time. We recommend herbal and rooibos teas to be steeped for 5 to 7 minutes in water heated to a full rolling boil. For the best flavor, use fresh water whenever possible, and avoid overboiling. If you want a stronger brew, just use more tea. And don’t forget to re-steep your tea leaves to get the most out of your leaf!

"Feeling stressed, sick, sad, whatever, peppermint always saves the day! I love unwinding with peppermint. It's smell and flavor just pack in that punch to help with some good ol' R & R!"
"I love a big pitcher of this at dinner parties! Steep it with a little honey and cool to room temperature."
"This peppermint is so pungent it almost brings a tear to my eye when I get a big whiff of it!"

I've been a mint tea drinker my whole life. When I was younger, peppermint was a staple for me, something I drank every single day with honey. Now that I don't sweeten my teas, I don't find peppermint all that interesting to drink on its own. That said, I want to start creating my own blends and this is the Peppermint I will be using because I absolutely love this company - I love how thoughtful they are about everything down to the packaging. I love that this tea is sourced from the US and is ethically made. This is the peppermint I'm always going to buy to create my own blends.
LOVE this Arbor Peppermint tea! I usually mix it half and half with hibiscus flowers, but recently I switched to 100% Peppermint. FABULOUS. ARBOR teas is the BEST!
Horribe tea. I've never tasted such weak peppermint tea and I used over a tablespoon of leaves. I'm feeling very regretful that I bought the giant bag
Invigorating taste and smell, I love it! Suits me better than the spearmint personally and blends well with other herbs.
