Peppermint is a hybrid mint, a cross between watermint and spearmint, with dark green leaves and purple-tinged stems. It is cultivated in northern India and is a major source of natural menthol.
Peppermint leaf and its crystalline extract, known as pudina satva, are used in many modern Ayurvedic formulations. They are traditionally included in preparations for digestive comfort, in cooling balms and in inhalation blends for easier breathing.
