1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and the simple syrup. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves, releasing their oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint mixture.
3
Add Rum
Add the white rum to the glass and stir gently to combine with the mint and lime mixture.

4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top.
5
Top with Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled to the top.
6
Garnish
Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Optionally, you can add a straw for easy sipping.
