Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
14 Tbsp Dried, Crumbled Spearmint Leaves
1 Fifth Vodka
1 1/2 Cups Sugar Syrup
1 Tsp glycerine

Marinate the mint leaves in the vodka for eight days, shaking
occasionally. Strain the leaves using a metal strainer, and press all
the floud out of the leves. This step should not be omitted because
thematerial contains considerable flavor. Many small particles of leaves
will remain in your alcohol and mint solution at this point. If you feel
it necessary, strain further through cheesecloth. Add the sugar syrup
and glycerine.
