Instrucțiuni

Simple Syrup

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar, water, and mint leaves. Heat until the sugar is melted, stirring occasionally, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove from heat and set aside to cool. The mint leaves will continue to steep in the syrup.

Once cool, strain the syrup. Store leftovers in a mason jar in the refrigerator. (Note 1)

Fruit salad

Gently rinse the berries and drain them on a paper towel. Remove the stems from the strawberries and cut them in half lengthwise. Combine all of the berries in a bowl. Pour about half of the cooled syrup over the top and gently toss to coat. Add more syrup as needed. (Note 2)

Add fresh mint and serve.

For optimal freshness, store in the refrigerator for no more than 2-3 days.
