Base Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- 1
Muddle Mint and Orange
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the mint leaves and the orange slice. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down to release the oils from the mint and the juices from the orange. Do not over-muddle; just enough to combine the flavors.

Add White Port

Combine Limonada and Tonic
In a separate glass or pitcher, combine the limonada and tonic water. Adjust to taste if you prefer more sweetness or tanginess.

Assemble the Drink
