How to Make Good Old Fashioned Mint Sauce
- Combine 1 cup packed fresh mint leaves, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a medium bowl. Stir vigorously until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Add 1/4 teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar). Stir gently to combine.
- Cover the bowl and let the mint sauce stand at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. The longer it sits, the more intense the mint flavor will become (up to 2 hours).
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, adding more sugar, salt, or vinegar to your preference.
- Serve your delicious homemade mint sauce alongside roast lamb, or use it as a topping for other dishes!
