peppermint syrup
Time
Total preparation time: 15 min.
Have harvested the sprawling peppermint on my terrace and cooked it syrup.
preparation
- Wash the peppermint and shake well dry, then add 2 cups of peppermint leaves without a stalk into a large bowl and add 250 g candy sugar.
- Boil 2 L of water with 2 kg of sugar and add to the peppermint bowl.
- Add 40 g of citric acid and stir again and again until the sugar candy has dissolved.
- Then let it draw for 24-36 hours.
- Strain, boil and bottled hot.
Tastes great in the summer in the mixing ratio 1: 20 (50 ml syrup + 1 L mineral water).
