Preparation

Make the Mint Syrup
In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh mint leaves, granulated sugar, and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring until the sugar has completely dissolved.

Simmer
Once boiling, reduce the heat and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes. This allows the mint flavor to infuse into the syrup.

Strain
After 10 minutes, remove the saucepan from heat. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove the mint leaves. Allow the syrup to cool completely.
