I have a roofdeck in Chicago where my wife and I grow quite a bit. This summer we planted two each tomato and tomatillo plants, 2x brussels sprouts, green onions, a few serrano pepper plans, and many herbs including rosemary, mint, basil, chervil, cilantro, etc. Oh, and a raspberry plant. We make our own simple syrup out of dextrose and the mint, which we can mix into liquor or tea as needed. Sometimes I'll throw some mint leaves (torn in a few pieces each) in with my tea when brewing.
