Over the holidays I wanted a little peppermint flavor in my morning coffee. I didn't have any flavored syrups on hand, but I had a jar of peppermint candies on my counter. So I dissolved one of the candies in my coffee and it worked beautifully! It's lightly sweet with just enough mint flavor to spice up your morning coffee. It can be made ahead of time and chilled to enjoy in the afternoon too, or for the next morning to warm up again. Enjoy!
