When winter rolls in, mint might not be the first ingredient you think of, but this refreshing herb has hidden powers that go far beyond flavor. Known for its cooling properties, mint helps calm digestion, freshen breath, and may even boost alertness and energy levels.

Mint is naturally rich in antioxidants and plant compounds like menthol, which can soothe an upset stomach and relieve tension headaches. According to Healthline, mint supports better digestion by relaxing the muscles in your digestive tract, helping nutrients absorb more efficiently, perfect for that post-holiday reset.

At BARE, you can taste the clean, crisp benefits of mint in our Winter Berry Bowl, where it pairs beautifully with bright fruits and creamy bases to refresh and restore. Click here to try one today!
