How to Distinguish Mint and Vietnamese Balm
- The easiest way to distinguish them is by their fragrance. Mint has a strong and cool spicy scent, while Vietnamese balm has a slightly lighter fragrance and a moderate spicy taste, not too overpowering.
- Next, mint leaves are oval-shaped, with serrated edges and fine hairs on both sides.
- In contrast, Vietnamese balm leaves appear longer and have serrated edges, but they are smaller than mint. Notably, Vietnamese balm does not have fine hairs on the leaf surface.
