Savor the traditional Iranian Sekanjabin - a delightful mint vinegar syrup made with a harmonious blend of honey and mint, offering a revitalizing experience especially on scorching summer days.

Ingredients

8 cups orange blossom honey
5 cups water
2 cups white wine vinegar

Instructions

    1. In a pot, combine the orange blossom honey and water. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly until the honey completely dissolves. Pour in the white wine vinegar, lower the heat, and let it simmer until the flavors meld together into a luscious syrup, approximately 20 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat.
    2. Immerse the fresh mint sprigs in the hot syrup, allowing it to cool down to room temperature.
    3. Once cooled, remove and discard the mint sprigs, then refrigerate the syrup to chill.
