Where can I buy spearmint tea in Virgina?

I want to buy spearmint tea, but none of the stores I've gone to (Wal-Mart, Shoppers, Giant Food, etc.) carry it. Does anyone know where I can buy spearmint tea from? I live in Northern Virginia and if any of y'all know stores in my area that sell it, I would really appreciate it.

Where can I buy spearmint tea in Virgina?
I live in Northern Virginia, five minutes outside of DC. I use loose teas and I am a little surprised that you're having trouble finding spearmint. Where do you live, Spotsylvania? I go to Mediterranean/Middle Eastern/Asian markets where they sell these loose teas. You can find Jasmine and all sorts of exotic teas including the common spearmint teas, or you can order spearmint on line.


Good luck to you.





ADDITIONS: I just thought of something else. Buy a spearmint plant in the herb section at your grocer's. It's an evasive plant and all you have to do is either plant it in your garden or leave it in your pot and pick the leaves off of it, steep it in a pot and pour it in a cup~~very easy!





Again, good luck.
Reply:try any health food store. They usually have lots of different kinds of herbal teas. Also, if you live near a Whole Foods Market, try that. Cost Plus world market might have it also.
Reply:Can't say for absolutely sure where you would get it but I got it last August at a Target coffee bar where they have all the little individual packets of tea. I was in Sterling VA but I don't think the Target store was more than 10 minutes from where I was staying. You could try Target or their coffee bar to see who their supplier is.
Reply:best time to find it would be now or at the very start of the spring time i know my giant here in Maryland sells it try bigelow tea mint medley it's may not be in its own box , it may only be sold in the assorted boxes. or if you have a great farmers market around or have home depot close to you go and get your own seedling or seeds and plant it. it will take off quick and grow like a weed just dry it for the winter time and wash it very good and bruise it in the summer time to make your own tea its cheaper and you don't have to worry about searching for it.
