I love adding mint leaves to my water, it gives it a very refreshing taste.  However, what I hate is soggy mint leaves hours later in my glass.  I tend to use the same glass throughout the day because I drink a lot of water and hate to have to keep adding fresh mint leaves every time. This weekend I decided to do something new, why not brew high concentrated fresh mint leaves and leave a pitcher in the refrigerator.  Using fresh mint leaves from my garden that’s exactly what I did!  It was so easy to just keep filling up my glass with mint water and not have to worry about soggy leaves.

If you haven’t had a chance to try mint water you definitely should.  Mint is one of those herbs that has many benefits. It’s great for digestion helps to settle your stomach, helps with congestion, it’s a natural stimulant so it can help with fatigue and it’s a total breath freshener.  Check out my simple Make It Monday recipe and enjoy!
