SEKANJEBAN FROM POMEGRANATES Julie Lenox-Sharifi, Pomegranates’ co- owner, offers this refreshing summer drink, a sweet and sour mint cooler. She suggests grating a cucumber and adding a spoonful to each glass as a cooling variation. 2 cups water 6 cups sugar 1 1/2 cups vinegar 2 stalks mint (or a few drops mint flavor) Combine the water and sugar in a pan and let boil over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved. Add the vinegar and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat, add mint and let cool. The consis- tency should be like syrup. If using fresh mint, remove sprigs after the syrup has cooled. Mix one part syrup to two to three parts cold water; serve over ice. ® Delta Center 684-YUMM Oakway Center 465-YUMM The Meridian 686-YUMM Catering 349-YUMM Soul satisfying ...
