Instructions
Chop the mint leaves roughly, and add them to a small sauce pan. Then add in the water and cane sugar and stir.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Continue simmering for 5 minutes, while stirring occasionally to fully dissolve the sugar.
Remove from the heat and cool. Strain the mixture through a sieve and discard the leaves.
