Peppermint Tea

What is it?

Steeped in hot water, this herbal bag produces a simple caffeine-free drink with a cool, menthol note. It's usually sold plain, without milk or sugar unless you add them yourself. Compared with the rest of McCafe's drinks, it's the only option built around herbs rather than coffee, black tea, or chocolate. Served hot, it comes down to the steep time and how much flavour gets out of the bag. Peppermint leaves provide that distinctive cooling sensation that lingers after each sip, and the aroma hits before the flavour does. It's a quiet menu item that most people overlook, but it's there for anyone who wants something warm without the caffeine.
