How do you grate mint?

I don't "grate" mint, but I do chiffonade. Put your mint leaves in a bunch and fold over. With a very sharp knife, finely chop in one direction. Create a new "bunch" and finely chop in a different direction. The chopping will bruise the mint leaves and can turn them black, but if you use them quickly it turns out ok.
