A universal favourite, the Mint Syrup is one of the most commonly used syrups for cocktail and mocktails around the world. It has a sweet and minty flavour, which appeals to young and old alike.

Easy to make and versatile too, this syrup adds a zesty note to any dessert it is drizzled on. Just scoop out a cup of vanilla ice-cream or strawberry ice-cream and lace it with Mint Syrup, to give it an exotic touch instantly.

You can make a batch of this syrup and store it in an airtight container. Stow it into the fridge to extend the shelf life.

You can also try other homemade syrups like the Sugar Syrup or Ice-Cream with Muscovado Sugar Syrup
