Notes

Notes from website:

4-5 oz. unsweetened cocoa powder (last 5 of the boil)
10 peppermint tea bags (make sure that the brand you use only contains peppermint leaves. Celestial Seasonings is good) added in the last 10 minutes of the boil.

You can optionally add additional tea bags as a "dry hop" of sorts. Some have had success with this method but I haven't tried it myself.
