Ingredients
- 1 cup mint leaves, chopped
- 3/4 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup brown sugar

- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 3 garlic cloves, chopped
- 1 tablespoon orange peel, grated
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped gingerroot
- 2 Szechuan peppercorns (I used regular peppercorns)
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce

Step 1: Combine all the ingredients (mint - pink peppercorns) in a bowl.
