Peppermint is steam distilled from the partially dried herb, when the flowers are in the beginning of full bloom.
Peppermint is ubiquitous—you find it everywhere: as a flavoring for sweets and drinks, toothpaste, mouthwash, chewing gum, medicines, so many flavors! As an herb, it’s been used for centuries as a decoction or infusion of the fresh leaves for cooling, for digestive issues, as a pain reliever, to stimulate awareness, etc.
The essential oil can be used for many of these, although care must be taken, as essential oils are so concentrated. So, pay attention, and remember that one drop is usually plenty sufficient, no matter what you’re using it for.
