Gałązka mięty do dekoracji

🌱 Vegetarian 🌿 Vegan

Description

A sprig of mint for decoration is a fresh, aromatic addition with an intense, cooling flavor and a distinct hint of menthol; it looks impressive thanks to its juicy, green leaves with a delicate texture and thin stems that enhance the aesthetics of desserts, drinks, and main dishes. As a decorative element, it is suitable for cocktails, lemonades, desserts, fruit salads, and Mediterranean and Asian cuisine, where it introduces a contrast of freshness and aroma without overwhelming the taste. Nutritionally, a sprig of mint provides few calories but is a source of vitamins A and C, folic acid, and minerals such as potassium; it also contains antioxidants and essential oils (menthol) that aid digestion, soothe nerves, and refresh breath. It is best stored in the refrigerator wrapped in a damp paper towel or in a glass of water, trimmed at the base, and for longer storage, the leaves can be frozen or dried.
