Spearmint yields oval, serrated leaves in abundant shades of green. Leave this variety in the Farmstand for long enough, and you’ll also spot an array of purple and blue flowers. With a sweet flavor that stems from carvone instead of menthol, you won’t find a “cooling” sensation here. Looking for the ultimate dose of flavor and texture? Pick leaves while they’re fresh and youthful, then add a fragrant touch to savory dishes and Summer drinks, from lemonade to its punchier adult counterparts.
