Chocolate Mint Day
It’s
Chocolate Mint Day! Most people agree that mint and chocolate were made for each
other. A burst of refreshing peppermint, spearmint, or crème de menthe combined
with the smooth, rich taste of chocolate is a truly unique pairing.
Some
of the most famous chocolate mint inventions include: mint chocolate cake, Thin
Mint Girl Scout cookies, grasshopper martinis, Andes after-dinner mints, and
mint chocolate chip ice cream. Chocolate mint is also a type of herb. It is part
of the spearmint family and has edible leaves that taste like chocolate and
mint!
To
celebrate Chocolate Mint Day, snack on a piece of your favorite chocolate mint
candy, enjoy a scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream, or drop a candy cane in a
steaming cup of hot cocoa!
One of my favorites is chocolate mint ice cream at Fosselman's in
Alhambra!!!
