Refresh yourself with Japanese mint: Japanese peppermint tea

Japanese mint is a mint native to Japan that has a refreshing, cool feeling. Its menthol component, which is anti-inflammatory, promotes digestion, astringent, and analgesic, stimulates stomach activity, making it useful for indigestion and hangovers. Japanese mint tea leaves harvested in Uda, Nara, have a gentler, rounder scent than Western peppermint.
