• Blend mint and the water in the jar of a blender until mint is finely chopped. Transfer to a saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove from heat; let steep 45 minutes. Strain mixture through a fine mesh sieve into bowl; reserve liquid (1 3/4 to 2 cups). Discard mint.

Steps:

• 1. Place the water, vinegar, and confectioners' sugar in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on HIGH until at a good rolling boil, about 45 minutes. 2. Remove the lid and let the liquid evaporate a bit while you remove the spearmint leaves from their stems and finely chop them. Add the mint and salt to the cooker, cover, and cook until the leaves are limp, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve warm. The sauce will keep in the refrigerator in an airtight container for several days, but the mint will lose some of its fresh flavor.
