well same sister who suggested mint watermelon facials (on to-do list for tonight while catching up on master chef) has asked for more mint ideas.
i can start with mint cucumber basil water
half a cucumber, thinly sliced
bunch of mint chopped
bunch of basil chopped
place in pitcher, pour boiling water (fill 2/3), stir in 1/4 cup of sugar or some agave liquid. then pack with ice cubes the rest of the way. let sit in fridge for as long as you like. i had this tasty refreshing drink available for a week. fun to drink over ice in nice fancy goblets.
If you have cilantro, it makes a nice sort of faux chutney thing to smash them together with some garlic, salt, whatever, perhaps a pepper or cucumber pureed up for volume, and then is freezable too. Mint ice cream, if you have an ice cream machine.
ReplyDeleteso, on what might you put the mint chutney?
