Fresh Spring tea - Mint and Vanilla

I was at a friend's house the other day and she served a lovely light homemade tea of Mint and Vanilla.

It was so light and delicious! I made some this weekend to sip in the sun while I read.. this would also make a lovely cold beverage as well.

 

All you need to do is roughly chop up a small amount of mint leaves and add in a scraping of vanilla and pour your boiled water over it and let it steep for about 5 minutes. If you don't have real vanilla, extract can work, but make sure not to over do it. Add a drop or two and taste test it first.
