What type of mint for drinks?

I'm a huge fan of spearmint, never tried any of the others, be sure to let us know how they are.

Keep in mind mint grows like a weed unless you keep it in a pot. I tried for a couple years and could never get potted mint to grow. One winter I dumped the barren pot over the side of the deck and next spring I was pleased to find mint starting to grow, by the end of that summer I had a 6 ft patch of spearmint.
