THE EASIEST TEA IN THE WORLD (AND MY FAVORITE ONE)

PreviousNext
i’m not a particularly big fan of the tea, because my heart belongs entirely to the coffee, but there is a variant that I can always drink at any time. fresh mint tea is easy to prepare and you don’t even need lemon slices. just get few leaves of fresh mint and pour it up with boiling water. you can enjoy it both hot and cold in summer as ice tea.
from my history education in the university i remember that in ancient rome it was believed that the scent of peppermint helps brain activity and strengthens the memory, so many students there created special wreaths made of the plant and went to school like that believing that it will help them learn better. if this is true, the mint tea is just a great drink for every day at work. if not – at least it is refreshing and tastes really good.
аз не съм особено голям почитател на чая, тъй като сърцето ми принадлежи изцяло на кафето, но има една негова разновидност, която мога да пия винаги и по всяко време. чаят от свежа мента се приготвя супер бързо и дори не му трябва лимон. просто откъснете стръкче от свежа мента и го залейта с вряща вода. можете да му се насладите както топъл, така и студен, през лятото. 
 
от историческото си образование си спомням, че в древен рим се смятало, че аромата на мента подпомага мозъчните дейности и подсилва паметта и затова много от римските студенти посещавали заниятията си със специално приготвени венци от растението. ако това е вярно, то ментата е просто чудесна напитка за всеки работен ден, ако ли пък не – то поне остава освежаващия и вкус.

    My grandmother used to make me iced mint tea with fresh mint out of her garden. It was the best, and every time I smell mint, it conjures up memories of my childhood.

    Прекрасна идея! Само със сушена мента съм опитвала и то от пакетче… Обещавам да опитам това! Благодаря, Радост, свеж и усмихнат ден от мен! :)

    Ще се изненадаш, колко е приятно. Дори и студен от хладилника този чай е много приятен. Само искарвай ментовите стръкчета, ако смяташ да го прибираш в хладилника. Понякога те загорчават. :)

    I love mint teas! They are so good and I agree with the statement about getting smarter after drinking the mint tea! Maybe it's not working for everyone, but it works for me:) it definitely stimulates the creative part of your brain.
    My favourite mint tea, is not fresh as yours, but it's loose tea with mint – organic Spearmint from DAVIDs TEA:) I recommend it to everyone who loves mint and similar tastes!
    But I'll definitely try this method to prepare my next cup :)

This is the second largest island in the Bay and has many stories to tell. Most of them - probably not so happy. The island was used as an immigration station where officials detained, inspected and examined approximately one million immigrants. Many people primarily from Asia, have to spend here months waiting for the heir immigration status.
