I'm allergic to peppermint, so I substituted almond extract instead. The meringues turned out great!

These meringues didn't turn out well for me. I think I overbeat the egg whites.

I found these meringues to be a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.
