Mint From

What to do with leaves from a mint plant?

My BF has a mint plant outside that’s growing like a weed. I’ve never actually cooked with mint before, so I’m asking for any favorite recipes or any other uses.

All these answers are good. Of course, mojito comes to mind first but my favorite recipe for mint is to mix equal portions of unsalted softened butter with softened cream cheese. Then mix in the mint. Spread on your favorite bread and then top with sliced cucumbers. Its a yummy tea sandwich. Sometimes I add tomatoes and sprouts too Mmmm…
