This is very nice to serve with lamb.

1 1/2 cups packed fresh mint, washed
3 1/4 cups water
Green food coloring
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
1 (1 3/4 ounce) box Sure-Jell
4 cups granulated sugar

Crush mint leaves and stems. Add water. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat, cover and let stand 10 minutes. Strain and measure 3 cups of mint infusion. Add food coloring and lemon juice. Add Sure-Jell, dissolve and bring to a rapid boil. Add sugar. Cook fast, stirring occasionally until it comes to a rapid boil that cannot be stirred down; then cook 1 minute more. Pour into sterilized jelly glasses and seal.

Yields 6 half pints.
