No, Merelani Mint garnet is not the same as Tsavorite. Both are green grossular garnets but the mint garnet does not have enough color saturation to be considered a tsavorite. They occur in the same geological environment but the Mint garnet is not imparted with enough chromium or vanadium to give it the saturation necessary to call it tsavorite. This is like green beryl vs emerald or the difference between pink sapphire and ruby.

Why does any drink feel ice cold after eating a mint?

"According to a group of scientists in San Francisco, the reason is that the same nerve fibres that signal hot and cold are also sensitive to menthol, an ingredient in mints. Normally when the temperature changes it causes pores on the surface of the nerve cell to open and close, changing the electrical activity of the cell, which the brain interprets as a change in temperature. But menthol can also affect the function of the pores in the same way and triggers the nerve cell into thinking that the temperature is lower than it is." -TheNakedScientists.com
