Discard leaves. Add green food color to make the syrup a bright green. Add the mint oil and stir. Pour into sterile bottles. Refrigerate. Syrup is ready to use. Dilute with cold water or sparkling water. SOURCE: Sabbath chapter in _From My Grandmother”s Kitchen: a Sephardic Cookbook_ by Viviane Bichech Miner From Gemini”s MASSIVE MealMaster collection
