Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine water, sugar, and fresh mint leaves. Heat over medium, stirring until sugar is fully dissolved. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 1 minute. Remove from heat, and allow the syrup to steep for about 30 minutes to infuse the mint flavor.
Strain the syrup through a mesh strainer into a sterilized glass jar to remove the mint leaves. Allow to cool completely before using or storing.
