The naiad Minthe, daughter of the infernal river-god Cocytus, became concubine to Hades, the lord of the underworld and god of the dead. [9] [10] In jealousy, his wife Persephone intervened and metamorphosed Minthe, in the words of Strabo's account, "into the garden mint, which some call hedyosmos (lit. 'sweet-smelling')".

The amaretto stinger uses a 3-to-1 ratio of amaretto to white crème de menthe, [14] while an Irish stinger uses equal parts Irish cream liqueur and white crème de menthe. [15] The Mexican stinger substitutes tequila for brandy. [16] A "vodka stinger", also known as a white spider, [17] uses vodka instead of brandy. [18]
Mentha, also known as mint (from Greek μίνθα míntha, [2] Linear B mi-ta [3]), is a genus of flowering plants in the mint family, Lamiaceae. [4] It is estimated that 13 to 24 species exist, but the exact distinction between species is unclear. [5] [1] Hybridization occurs naturally where some species' ranges overlap. Many hybrids and ...
Its simple to slightly branched stems grow 20 to 30 centimeters high. Its 10 to 15 millimeter-length leaves are sessile, glabrous and broadly linear to oblanceolate in shape. Flowers form along verticillasters, pedicels 2 to 3 millimeters long, 2-lipped calyx possessing 5 lobes. Its corolla is whitish, 4 to 5 millimeters long. [2] [18]
However, the mean terminal half-life elimination for young volunteer subjects administered 75 mg cinnarizine, was found to be 23.6 ± 3.2 hours. [ 2 ] A study that administered 75 mg doses of cinnarizine, twice a day for twelve days, to healthy volunteers, observed that cinnarizine did accumulate in the body, with a steady-state accumulation ...
Next, 2 undergoes ring-opening with dimethylaluminium N,N-dimethylamide in diethyl ether, yielding 2-(dimethylamino)-2-phenyl-butan-1-ol (4) and 2-phenylbutanal (3) as a byproduct. Then, 4 reacts with 3,4,5-trimethoxybenzoyl chloride ( 5 ) in triethylamine and THF , which is catalysed by 4-dimethylaminopyrridine (DMAP), yielding trimebutine.
