The Mentha family is made up of many species, including some of the most well-known and beloved culinary herbs such as basil, thyme, and oregano.  In Ayala's Herbal Water, we chose spearmint (Mentha spicata) for its refreshing quality and distinctive aroma.  Spearmint, named for its pointed leaf tips, grows in most temperate climates and is native to most of Europe and southwest Asia.
