Brush off visible dirt with your fingers or wash and gently pat dry with a clean cloth.

Bundle at least four or five stems of mint and tie them together with a tie around the end. 

Place the bundles inside a brown paper bag. This avoids the exposure of the leaves to molds, dust, and sunlight. 

Poke holes all over the sides of the bag using a pen to allow the air to flow in and out. 

Hang the bag upside down inside a room that has air circulation. Make sure not to hang them above the stove or in a room that can affect the herb's flavor. 

Store the dried stems and leaves whole in an airtight container or glass herb jar. 🌿
