The term "mint" originates from the Greek word Minthe, which refers to a nymph turned into a mint plant by Queen Persephone due to jealousy over her husband, Hades. Persephone chose mint because it was a plant likely to be trampled, but Hades gave it a sweet scent to forever remind him of Minthe.
 
Mint has a long history, with the Ancient Greeks incorporating it into rituals, like fermented barley that was believed to grant a passage to the afterlife. They also used mint to flavor cordials, fruit compotes, and even enhance the fragrance of baths and perfumes.
