DESCRIPTION
Peppermint hydrosol, also known as peppermint hydrolat, is refreshing floral water obtained through the steam distillation of fresh peppermint leaves (Mentha piperita). As a co-product of the essential oil extraction process, peppermint hydrosol holds a tiny amount of essential oils, thus sharing some peppermint essential oil therapeutic effects.
How does it work? Peppermint hydrosol contains several organic compounds, such as menthol, a naturally occurring terpenoid responsible for peppermint’s cooling effect and fresh scent.
