Mint was an herb most commonly associated with Earth, but also found in some other cultures, such as Vulcan (although it differed greatly from the Earth variety). An aromatic, mentholated plant, the herb was usually combined with foods to enhance sweetness and produce a cool aftertaste. It was also brewed with tea to add flavor.
