Welcome to cr0 CF  8)

You'll find chopped dried mint (with the spices and herbs) at any supermarket.

It's used in tikka/tandoori masala mixes and marinades; though I use the mint jelly in marinades.

Thanks Coy-Ander

Most likely then in the herb section along with other herbs I suspect? I've never looked there go figure.  ::)
