Catnip is the young, tender shoots of the Nepeta cataria plant. While famously known for its effects on cats, catnip also has calming and medicinal benefits for humans. It’s used in teas, skincare, and cooking, offering anti-inflammatory, digestive, and stress-relieving properties.
Taste Catnip taste like a gentle blend of mint and lemon balm. They’re milder than peppermint and give a light herbal brightness to teas, broths, or fresh dishes. |
