If you've made it the way I do - chopped mint and vinegar - ypu might try popping it in the freezer in ice cube trays :idea:

mint vinegar and a table spoon of sugar.
great idea but i havnt got any ice cube trays :cry:

Try a shallow baking dish and cut it up when frozen :idea:

I always make a load and pot it into small jam jars. Lasts for ages, because of the vinegar!

I think it's best freshly made grannie, so that the leaves don't actually get pickled just fresh and sitting in vinagar.

So does his youngest son. Eats mint sauce with EVERYTHING . Has vinegar with everything too. Stupid boy, even puts it on his cheese and crackers!!!!!

Try heating up a pork pie in the microwave, and eat with hot mushy peas, with mint sauce on the pie. Brilliant.

Ice cube tray is a good method. Bang mint, sugar & vinegar into liquidiser. Whizz - pour into tray, knock out & bag when frozen. Easy!
