- FOR MINT SYRUP - Combine water, sugar, and mint leaves in a saucepan, bring to boil. Remove from heat and stir until the sugar dissolves. Keep aside to cool down. Strain the syrup into a glass jar and discard the leaves.

- Serve immediately.
- NOTE - The leftover mint syrup can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- I used Bacardi superior white rum in this recipe.
- One cup = 250 ml, one tablespoon = 15 ml, one teaspoon = 5 ml.
