Strawberry mojito for winter Ingredients

500g strawberries
300g sugar
lemon
peppermint
2.5 liters of water

Preparation

The ingredients given in the recipe are designed for a three-liter jar of strawberry mojito.
To avoid unpleasant surprises, strawberries should be thoroughly washed. And then send for 5-15 minutes in cold water.
Put sugar in the boiling water. Stir, bring it to a boil and let it dissolve.
Banks should be sterilized in any convenient way. How to do this in the microwave, we wrote earlier.
Put the washed and peeled strawberries in a sterile jar.
Add a few slices of lemon and a sprig of mint.
Pour boiled syrup to the berries, filling the jar to the very top.
Cover the jar with a sterile lid (do not close!) and let stand in this form for 30-40 minutes.
After the specified time, drain the syrup from the jar into the pan and again bring to a boil, and then cook for 1 minute.
Pour the berries with hot syrup and cover.
Check if the lid leaks. If it leaks, change it. Otherwise, cover the can with a blanket and leave until completely cooled.
That's it, strawberry mojito is ready for winter. Bon appetit and successful culinary experiments!
