Catnip (Nepeta cataria) is an aromatic mint-family herb traditionally used in gentle herbal infusions. It has a soft, herbaceous character with a lightly minty aroma, making it a popular addition to calming-style tea blends. Catnip is also widely known for its playful effect on many cats, which is why it is often used in pet enrichment. The cut herb format is easy to measure, steep, and strain for simple home routines.
