Notes
*In case you’re at the store trying to figure out how much mint to buy, get 2 of the 0.75 ounce packages of mint sprigs. Once you strip the leaves from the stems, you’ll have just the right amount.
**If you don’t have a food processor that can handle this small amount, you can do the following: 1) Very finely chop the mint. Put it in a bowl with the sugar and salt. Add the boiling water. Stir and mash it up a bit. Let sit for 5 minutes. Stir in the cider vinegar. Let it sit for 10 minutes for the flavors to meld.
