Chocolate mint grows very fast (Photo: Shutterstock)If you have a damp wet spot in your garden or compound, you can grow chocolate mint as it does will on such grounds. Chocolate mint is a herb that grows well in a cool temperate, with sun and shade. To make your tea, steep some chocolate mint leaves into boiling water for five minutes. When done boiling, you can add some milk or chocolate milk to enhance the flavour. Said to repel fleas, mosquitoes, flies, rats, and ants, chocolate mint (and other mint types) are a permanent fixture in my compound and kitchen garden.
