Spearmint is a sweet, refreshing spice and herb, popular worldwide as a flavoring agent. Due to its refreshing, minty taste, it is widely used in chewing gums, sweets, and dental care products. Spearmint essential oil differs greatly from peppermint: among other things, it offers a milder alternative for food flavoring. In the kitchen, spearmint can be a splendid addition to salads, drinks, and desserts, and it can also be excellently used for homemade salad dressings and marinating meats.
