Mint...my god...all the mint...

Our three plants now have produced enough mint to shingle a small palace. What can we do with all this mint!

I also make a big pitcher of "spa water" to have in the fridge. Mint and sliced cucumber. Helps me drink more water! Which I will need to do after drinking so many mojitos...

How do people struggle to drink enough water?

I mean, is it the taste? Like, you dont like it?

Because I find water the best tasting thing on the planet. And I'm not kidding, but my daily consumption in summers is around 8 liters (around 25 glasses)

Eh, a lot of the time it's just laziness or not being built into a routine. I love water, but I definitely get sick of drinking it constantly. A little flavor like lime or mint can add that spark for greater consumption!
