1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the leaves to release their essential oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves into small pieces.
2
Add Lime Juice and Simple Syrup
Pour in the fresh lime juice and simple syrup over the muddled mint. Stir gently to combine.
3
Add White Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass. Mix well with the mint and lime mixture.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Give it a gentle stir to mix the ingredients.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the cocktail with a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Optionally, you can add a few extra mint leaves on top. Serve immediately and enjoy!
