When I think of summer, I think of the mint drink that my sweet mother made.
It is just a simple syrup, made with fresh lemon, orange, and mint.
You add the ginger ale, water or adult beverage of your choice!
The recipe:
2 Cups sugar
Juice of 6 lemons and 2 oranges
1 Cup of mint leaves
Cook sugar 5 minutes and cool. Add fruit juice, pour over mint,
cover and let stand for 1 hour.
Strain in jar and store in refrigerator.
Use 1/3 Cup of syrup to glass of ginger ale or water or beverage of your choice : )
Enjoy!
