If you love chocolate, mint, and tea, you must grow your own chocolate mint plant! This lovely little mint makes the MOST delicious cocoa-flavored tea. Simply steep a handful of leaves in hot water, drink as is or add a bit of almond milk and sweetener for a dessert-level treat - YUM!

This mint is cold hardy and will thrive in partial shade and moist soil It grows so well, we suggest growing in pots, it has a creeping tendency and will cascade over the side of your pot. Harvest as needed and it will grow new leaves within a week or so. If you don't mind a garden of mint, plant right in the ground - it is worth noting this mint will spread far and wide so consider that when choosing where you'll plant.

In addition to wonderful tea, Chocolate Mint is a fantastic Mint for desserts, garnishes, and culinary delights. It has a defined, but subtle, chocolate flavor paired with sharp hints of Peppermint.

Like other Mint varieties, Chocolate Mint Tea is a divine after-dinner treat.

Your chocolate mint plant will arrive ready to transplant in a 4in pot. Seedlings are harvested from our mother plant, which is actually more of a mother garden bed, all organic and grown with love. Grown organically in our greenhouse here at LeeHouse Gardens.
