Dis is a delightful dish. It is so easy to fix,
I garontee!
| 1 cup packed fresh mint leaves and stems, rinsed and drained | ½ cup cider vinegar |
| 1 cup water | 3½ cups sugar |
| 3 ounces liquid pectin | 2 drops green food coloring (optional) |
Place mint in a medium-sized sauce pan. Using a muddler
or heavy glass tumbler, bruise the leaves, then add the cider vinegar,
water, and sugar. Over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, bring to
a rolling boil. Stir in the pectin and food coloring, and bring back to
a boil, stirring often. Remove from the heat and skim off any bubbles
or scum that may have formed. Pour or strain into sterilized jars and
seal with sterilized jars and seal with sterilized new lids, following
the manufacturer’s directions. Cool, label, and store in a cool
place.
