    When do you need it buy? Mint is the easiest thing to grow, just be careful because it will take over your garden.

    Otherwise most vege shops, supermarkets etc will sell it cheap, you would need maybe 5 bunches (large)

    Just check out the fresh herb section of your grocery store.  You can probably get PLENTY for about 20 dollars. No need to order online =) 

    Sounds tasty! Have fun!

    Ditto pp... check your local grocery stores for fresh mint. I'm not a fan of mojitos, but I know plenty of people who love them and make them at home with their own fresh mint from the grocery store.

    Grocery stores can often times charge a stupid amount of money for mint, considering it's so ridiculously easy to grow (so easy, it's almost impossible to get rid of). If it's an option, you could try farmer's markets. It's often sold in large amounts for very cheap in that setting.
