Have an abundance of fresh mint growing in your garden and not sure what to do with it? Well, we’re here to show you all the delicious ways to use this super herb! Hint- it can do more than make a pretty garnish to a drink or cake.

Blend it into a soup, add it to a marinade, toss it into a salad, or add it to homemade ice pops. The vibrant flavor of fresh mint adds instant flavor whenever it’s used.

So go pick a big handful from the garden and take a look at all the wonderful things you can do with it!

Tip: If you still have tons of mint left over in your garden after making a few recipes with it, then give some to neighbors, or simply put a big bunch in a vase and take in that vibrant aroma every time you walk by.
