Are mint and fresh mint the same thing?

Yes. Fresh mint is another name for mint, so they are the same ingredient and measure identically. A teaspoon of mint weighs 0.6 grams under either name, and every conversion on this page holds whichever name your recipe uses. Recipes swap the two freely, so you can follow either without changing quantities or weighing any differently.

What is 100g of mint in ounces?

100 grams of mint is 3.53 ounces. This is the same for any ingredient, since grams and ounces are both weight units and do not change with what you are weighing. 200 grams is 7.07 ounces and 50 grams is 1.77 ounces. Use the weight converter to switch between grams, ounces, pounds, and kilograms for any amount.

How much does a teaspoon of mint weigh?

1 teaspoon of mint in grams is 0.6 grams. The ratio is fixed, so 2 teaspoons is 1.2 grams and half a teaspoon is 0.3 grams. Ingredients like mint are usually measured by the spoon, so this is the amount most recipes call for. See the full teaspoon to grams chart for mint for more.

Mint Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert mint from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.

Mint means fresh mint leaves, the bright herb stirred through salads, teas, sauces, and juices. One metric cup (250 ml) of loosely packed mint leaves weighs about 30 grams or 1.06 ounces. When a recipe lists mint by the cup but you are working from a bunch, converting by weight keeps the flavour balanced.

Fresh leaves pack loosely and unevenly, so a cup of mint can vary with how tightly you press them in. Weighing in grams gives a steadier result when scaling dressings, mojitos, and green juices.

Related Mint Ingredients

Parsley is another fresh herb measured the same way by the cup, milder and more grassy than mint. Swap with a flavour caveat: parsley suits savoury dishes, mint suits sweet and cooling ones. See our Parsley converter.

Coriander (cilantro) is a fresh leafy herb measured by the cup like mint, with a citrusy, polarising flavour. Use it in salsas and curries; it is not a flavour match for mint. See our Coriander converter.
