  • Remove from heat; add ⅓ cup mint-flavored apple jelly and stir until melted.

Notes

(This recipe was in "The American Weekly" along with other recipes from the chef at the White House. I tried this and found it to be excellent. (Although I never did use fresh mint as a garnish!——other fruits in the season do very nicely.) This recipe will probably be as close as we'll ever get to the White House!)
