Why should it? It's not cold.

It's rather more miraculous that mint causes the sensation of coolness than that it doesn't actually physically cool things.

Does mint actually cool things down?

I'm not entirely certain what you mean by adding the word "hypothesis", but mint only "cools things down" if it's colder than they are (for example, if you were keeping it in the freezer or something). It does produce the sensation of coolness on the tongue for interesting chemical reasons, but it doesn't actually change the temperature.

How many mint does it take to cool down hot water?

If the question is "how many minutes" then the answer is: it depends on how hot the water is to start with, how much the temperature has to drop before you consider it "cooled down" and what you are doing to cool it... dropping ice cubes in it? letting it sit in an open pan? sticking it in a refrigerator? overall it really can't be answered without more information.If the question is about how much "mint" it takes to cool down hot water, then you should keep in mind that the cooling sensation you get from mint isn't actually from a drop in temperature but rather the way the chemicals of the mint stimulate the nerves.
