How about a 2-color swirl using some with your red, and some with cocoa powder? Peppermint fudge!

I am a huge fan of peppermint, so I use it straight, but add oatmeal - this is one of my favs....so refreshing! k

I just did Spearmint & Peppermint. VERY minty and refreshing. The Spearmint brightened up the peppermint wonderfully!

(I've tried Pauls Lav/Pep before...amazing scent!)
