🌱 Trini Mint Tea
Ingredients:
A small handful of fresh mint leaves (about 10–12 leaves)
2–3 cups of water

1–2 pieces of clove (optional, adds a sweet aromatic flavor)
1 small strip of lime peel OR a squeeze of lime (Trini twist!)
Sugar or honey to taste
Instructions:
Rinse mint leaves well and gently crush them to release the oils.
Bring water to a boil in a small pot.
Add ginger and clove (if using) and let simmer for 2–3 minutes.
Turn off the heat, add the mint leaves and lime peel/squeeze.
Cover and let steep for 5 minutes.
