Sharbat Sekanjabin
- 3 cups water
- 5 cups sugar
- 1 1/2 cups white-wine vinegar
- 6 sprigs of fresh mint, washed
- Bring the water to the boil with the sugar, stirring constantly until the sugar has dissolved.
- Add the vinegar and simmer for 20 minutes longer.
- Remove from the heat and submerge the sprigs of mint in the syrup.
- The flavor of the mint will penetrate the syrup as it cools.
- Remove the mint, and pour into clean bottles.
- To serve, stir 5 tablespoons syrup into each glass of iced water (or water and ice cubes).
- Sometimes a little peeled and grated cucumber is added when serving, and a mint leaf is used to garnish.
