Welcome to our series featuring Food Holidays: December 2022: National Peppermint Latte Day**. Now that Christmas Season is officially her its time to celebrate. David said that should include Peppermint Latte which Charlie and I will pass on. We will have a glass of Hot Chocolate or two why you celebrate National Peppermint Latte Day.**
National Peppermint Latte Day**
Peppermint Lattee is typically made of Espresso, steamed Milk, Mocha Sauce and Peppermint flavored Syrup.
Did you know Peppermint is a hybrid Mint between Watermint and Spearmint.
The first description of Peppermint was by 1753 by Carl Linnaeus.
Peppermint has a high Menthol content, that is widely used to relieve minor throat irritation. Which is why in Winter we should always have something with Peppermint in our home.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
