My brother loves peppermint. I made some for him. My family likes it as well. You can add hot or cold water, even soda, to this syrup. If you're into cocktails, you can use this syrup as well.

This recipe yields about 600-650 ml of syrup. You can increase or decrease the amount of mint. Bear in mind that the ratio for sugar and water for simple syrup is 1:1.
