This is a lovely, silent love potion. It does not announce its intentions loudly but quietly concludes a meal, leaving lovely fresh mouths longing to entangle and adding a touch of energy to carry you both on for a while. Choose this if you want to sneak up on your loved one and leave him or her with a lingering desire for you.

4 sprigs fresh mint (preferably powerful Moroccan spearmint)
1 tablespoon dried china or jasmine tea leaves
2 cups boiling water
1 teaspoon sugar
crushed ice

Crush the mint into a teapot and add the tea leaves and boiling water. Allow the tea to infuse for about 10 minutes, and then stir in the sugar. Cool. Serve the tea strained onto crushed ice in a Moroccan tea glass decorated with just 1 or 2 mint leaves or if it’s a cold night, simply serve warm in the tea glasses. The tea will relax you while it promotes sweet breath and a gentle sense of desire.
