How to Make Mint Tulips
- Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a saucepan.
- In a heat-safe pitcher, combine 1 cup of fresh mint leaves and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar.
- Pour the boiling water over the mint and sugar. Stir gently to dissolve the sugar.
- Let the mixture steep for 30 minutes to 2 hours, or until the desired mint flavor intensity is reached. The longer it steeps, the stronger the flavor will be.
- Strain the mint mixture through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a separate pitcher, discarding the leaves.
- When ready to serve, add 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice to the strained mint syrup.
- Fill each glass with ice.
- Pour the mint syrup mixture over the ice, then top with 4 cups of chilled ginger ale.
- Garnish each glass with a fresh sprig of mint.
