Sekanjabin (sometimes spelled sekanjubin or sekanjamin, among others) is a refreshing Persian drink, sometimes even prepared for medicinal purposes. Earliest references to this concoction date from the 10th century AD. The syrup keeps almost indefinitely without refrigeration, and the drink is particularly tasty with fruits. Enjoy!

PERSIAN MINT & CUCUMBER COOLER (SEKANJABIN)
In Iran, a pitcher of sekanjabin is served at family picnics, especially during those long, hot months. The syrup is simple: sugar, mint and water. But it's the vinegar that makes this into a delicious sweet and sour concoction. The mint syrup can be served two ways. The first is as a dipping sauce for fresh, crisp lettuce leaves. There's something quite novel watching grown adults lick their fingers while dipping their crispy greens into this very sticky syrup. Heads of lettuce are consumed by the bunches as everyone dips on leaf after another. Some prefer sekanjabin as a drink: diluted in water, served over a glass filled with ice and grated cucumber. You can control the amount of sweetness, adding more or less water as desired. Some prefer more tang and add a bit more vinegar or lemon juice.

- For making this sweet sour drink, you need to pick a suitable pot, better to be a cupper pot. Pour the water and honey in the pot and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat then and let it reach to its half size (half of the content needs to vaporize).
- Remember to stir the content repeatedly whilst heating and also remove the foam created on the surface time to time.
- You can add a bundle of fresh mint if you like and let its flavor dissolve in it gradually and let it boil for a while with the honey and water mixture. You can tie the bundle in order to prevent the dissolving of the mint particles in the liquid and for the easier remove of the bundle.
