Red currant compote

Description

The drink is quick and easy to prepare. For the compote, you need clean filtered water, sugar to taste, and a sprig of mint if desired. I like adding mint because it provides a pleasant coolness and a subtle menthol aftertaste. See the recipe. The drink is ready to serve.
