Make the Mint Simple Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine equal parts water and granulated sugar (1 cup each). Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and add fresh mint leaves (about 1 cup). Let it steep for at least 30 minutes. Strain the mixture to remove the mint leaves, and store the syrup in a bottle in the refrigerator.
