Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the leaves to release their essential oils, being careful not to tear them too much.

Add Lime
Cut the lime into wedges and add them to the glass with the muddled mint. Use the muddler again to press down on the lime wedges to extract the juice.
