They're also good in lemonade, and you can make a syrup from them to use for making mint juleps. My husband's family is from Kentucky and they used to always have mint juleps in the summer.
Here's a recipe from cooks.com:
MINT JULEPS
Heat 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water to boil. Boil 5 minutes; cool. Place 2 cups fresh mint leaves in 1 quart container. Pour sugar/water mixture over mint leaves. Cover tightly and refrigerate at least 12 hours but no longer than 24 hours. For each Mint Julep fill a 12 ounce glass with crushed ice. Add 1 1/2 teaspoon mint mixture with 2 ounce bourbon. Stir with long handled spoon until frost forms on outside of glass. Serve with a long straw and a sprig of fresh mint.
What can i ues Spearmint leaves that i have?
I dried my leaves for winter tea-- very refreshing. You can add them to any plain tea or I just used the mint.
good luck
Reply:They really taste great putting them in your tea.

Does drinking spearmint tea actually help treat hirsutism in women?
and if there are ppl out there who have tried this and it worked,please tell me.
Does drinking spearmint tea actually help treat hirsutism in women?
Preliminary research has shown that drinking a couple of cups of spearmint tea every day lowered the level of free testosterone and increased the level of FSH and estrogen in the women in the study. A lot more research needs to be done before anything conclusive can come of this. In the meantime, what's the harm in having a couple of cups of spearmint tea every day?
Reply:No, it does not. There is no treatment for hirsutism. You just have to find the best way for you to remove the excess hair.

Does wild spearmint grow in Colorado? Where is it most likely to be found?
The mint commonly called spearmint (Mentha spicata) is a pretty common weedy species in Colorado, found along streams in shady places. I've seen it in ponderosa pine forests near Boulder, and evidently it grows out in plains counties as well (see map below) in ditches and along streams.
Does wild spearmint grow in Colorado? Where is it most likely to be found?
Yes, right next to the weed they grow up there.

Peppermint or spearmint chewing gum?
I must be by-mint because I like both!
Reply:I like anything with the -mint suffix. lol Report It
Reply:Spearmint, but peppermint tastes fresher. but i love cinnamon flavour the best
Reply:Like them both but prefer spearmint
Reply:Personally, I prefer spearmint.
Peppermint is well, peppery-ier though, so if you like your foods hot and spicy, you may prefer peppermint.
(...I don't know that I'd join any group that had a strong position on one being inherently "better" than the other though...)

Reply:I would say spearmint as i like the cool fresh taste but i am a bit concerned that groups are being chosen on so flimsy a concept as what gum you chew. i dont think id join either to be honest.
Reply:def. pepermint. spermint reminds me of eating leafs off a tree
Reply:Spearmint
Reply:I would join the spearmint group it's better, but both are good
Reply:Your question made me chuckle 'cause I was wondering just the other day which people preferred. I favor spearmint....definately. Spearmint is minty, but yet still sweet. Peppermint is minty and almost corrosive tasting!
Reply:Peppermint! To me, it's the original.
Which would you join?
Reply:Spearmint all the way. It's sweeter!
Reply:sorry I'm in out in the cold, don't like either. love the fruit ones. rebels of mint chewing gum, lets unite and set up the Foundation of fruit chewing gum!!
Reply:Peppermint!
Reply:spearmint.... They have a group arguing about that? Deeply tragic.
Reply:After chewing over the questions, i always go for spearmint.Its tastier
Reply:SPEARMINTTTTTTTTTTTT
Reply:spearmint....better flavor
Reply:spearmint all the way!
Reply:I like them both gum is gum. If I am purchasing myself I purchash spearmint becuse if I wanted a pepermint flavor I would just suck a pepermint
Reply:The only gum I buy is wrigley's spearmint. It has taken me a while to decide, but now its all I chew. It has the longest lasting flavor, and it is wonderful. These days I can not even eat a peppermint. I like the spearmint ones (they are they green ones). It goes as far as I do not eat candy canes. I just do not like the peppermint flavor!!
