Twinings Mint Green Tea, 20 Tea Bags 40g
The peppermint-green, not a spearmint Moroccan one, and that matters: this leads with a sharp, cool menthol lift rather than the rounder sweetness of the Good Earth or Dragonfly mint-greens, kept clean with no bitterness over a mild green base. It is more of a brisk palate-reset than a soothing sipper. Real green tea means caffeine, so a daytime cup, not an evening one, and it is sharp enough to be good iced. Pick it for crisp and cooling; choose a spearmint version if you want sweet and mellow.
Twinings Mint Green Tea, in brief.
Twinings Mint Green Tea is the mint-flavoured green tea from the Twinings range, the standard green tea base blended with peppermint and spearmint leaves, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection as the green-tea answer to the Moroccan-style mint cup and the daytime alternative to a plain Pure Green Tea or a flavoured fruit-green tea.
The green tea does the structural backbone work, giving the cup its pale-gold colour, while the peppermint and spearmint sit on top as the cooling lift, brighter and sharper than a plain Sencha would carry on its own. The cup drinks cleaner and fresher than either the leaf or the mint would alone.
A twenty-bag Twinings household pack at an accessible price, a sensible daytime upgrade over a plain Pure Green Tea or a plain peppermint herbal in the standard supermarket aisle.
Twinings Mint Green Tea serves as a functional foundation for those seeking to integrate a touch of cooling clarity into a modern daily routine. This invigorating blend captures the heart of traditional herbal wellness by pairing the restorative properties of Green Tea with the awakening power of Mint.
It is the definitive choice for the drinker who views their tea break as a dedicated ritual for refreshing the mind and soothing the digestion after a heavy meal. It is the perfect choice for the individual who views their restorative ritual as a vital component of a productive and healthy lifestyle. Think of it as a "ctrl alt delete" for your palate.

The Story Behind the Twinings
Twinings was founded by Thomas Twining in 1706 at 216 Strand, London, where the original shop still operates today, making it the world's oldest continuously operating tea shop. The Twining family ran the business for nine generations and Stephen Twining is the current ambassador. Twinings was granted a Royal Warrant by Queen Victoria in 1837 and supplies tea to the UK Royal Household today.
