I found these herbs at the nursery and couldn't resist buying them, but now I have no idea what to do with them! Any ideas? I'm not even sure how to make tea. Thanks!

Well tea is one thing. Fresh mint is great w/ iced tea too (I like to put fresh mint into my sun tea as it is brewing). You can add them to fruit salad, use as an edible garnish on dessert

Thanks! I just got a sun tea jar and that sounds really good!

ita with the tea, dry some for winter time tea(hot or cold) as well. You can use it in making icecream(chocolate/chocolate mint icecream), garnish, salads, jelly...

do a google search for "chocolate mint recipe"

I use my apple mint to make a little tea- I just mix it (fresh) with my lemon balm (a mint relative), chop it up fine, add hot water, let it cool then add cold water.

Chocolate mint is great in tea, but it's also fun to snack off them while you prune/water your other plants.

...Not like I do that.
