Cooking
Wash mint, chop along with delicate stems. Lemon scald, cut into half rings. Add to the pot, cover with water, cook for 15 minutes to Insist 12 hours.
After a lot of time squeeze and strain the infusion. Pay attention to the color! Do not believe the pictures on the Internet, on which the jam is a beautiful emerald color! Over color have to work.
Add sugar. Cook until the sugar is dissolved.
In a glass dissolve the agar-agar swells instantly. The jams add the agar agar, boil to dissolve, bring to the boil.
About color. I went in a simple way. I had food coloring. I know that there are comments about the fact that it's chemistry, etc., but with a baby in the house time is always at a premium so play with the extraction of a beautiful green color natural way I didn't want to. FOR EMERALD green NATURAL PRODUCTS: Grind 200 g parsley 200 g spinach, add water, squeeze through cheesecloth. Heated to 80 C, the liquid from the parsley and spinach. Strain through a towel, add the resulting chlorophyll in the jam. I got this color, I would like gentle.
Poured into pre-sterilized jars and close with lids.
About the alcoholic beverage. 100 ml vodka, 100 ml peppermint jam, 200 ml of Sprite. I personally do not like the smell of vodka so I replace it with white rum Bacardi. Ice, straws, umbrellas, any decorations, and the holiday was a success)))
