You can also use peppermint essential oil in place of the peppermint extract. Please note that even though you'd just use 1 drop, the peppermint flavor will be more concentrated and therefore stronger. Super delicious, but stronger. If you prefer a more subtle flavor, I recommend sticking with peppermint extract.
