mint leaves
hot water
few drops lemon juice
brown sugar, to taste

Chop mint leaves until you have about a tablespoon (if you are using dried, use about a teaspoon dried leaves).

Boil 6 oz. of water and put into a cup (or teapot).

Add mint leaves to the water. Steep for at least ten minutes if you are using fresh mint leaves - it takes longer than if dried (for dried steep 5 to 10 minutes). Strain into cup if in a pot.

Add a few drops of lemon juice and brown sugar, to taste.

Drink!
