1 cup water
3/4 cup white wine vinegar or champagne vinegar
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1 bunch fresh spearmint (5 to 10 large sprigs)
Pinch of salt

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.
