Syrup of lilac with mint and candied fruit
Inspired by the recipe of jam from dandelions, I think this is such a wonderful syrup. Lilac added to many drugs that have antipyretic, diaphoretic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, anticonvulsant, analgesic and diuretic properties.... Welcome to the table!

Cooking

step-0
In the evening prepare a decoction of mint... Twigs cut and fill with boiling water, add a tablespoon of lemon juice and pour a glass of boiling water, boil 10 minutes, remove, leave on overnight.
step-1
Inflorescence of lilac rinse, the flowers do not separate from the small twigs, because I'm the sweetness in the base. Pour 2 cups boiling water + 2 tbsp lemon juice, boil 10 minutes. Let stand for broth for 15-20 minutes, drain the liquid, the flowers are no longer needed.
step-2
A little lilac flowers and a few mint leaves prepare to add to the syrup. I mint finely chopped, florets separated from the branches. Cook the syrup. Purple broth + sugar 500g ovarium on low heat, stirring constantly, until frothy. Do the same thing with mint broth + 250g of sugar. As soon as we see the foam off the syrup and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes, then re-ovarium another 10 minutes. A total of about 40 minutes.
step-3
Prepare the candied syrup. After cooking the syrup, combine them, add the flowers of lilac and mint leaves, candied fruit, cook for another 20 minutes. The readiness of the syrup I was determined by wooden spatula, which interfered with the syrup. As soon as it drops cooled and became thick - ready...
step-4
Banks for the syrup I decided to close so as to not have to store in the refrigerator. The jars were placed in a plastic container with high sides and pour boiling water over for a couple of minutes, cover, boil 5 minutes in water.
step-5
Pour the finished syrup into jars, close them and turn the cover down. Leave to cool... Everything! Ready!!!! A properly sealed lid should not be clicking, and needs to get involved.
