1 c. mint leaves, green or dried
1 c. vinegar
1 c. water
1 c. brown sugar

Boil together the vinegar, water and brown sugar. Add the mint leaves. Turn the heat on low and cook 3 - 5 minutes. Allow to cool before straining out the leaves. If it tastes too strong, increase the water. If using dried leaves, rub between your hands to make a finer product. If using green leaves, chop them fine and don't strain them. May be used hot or cold.
