Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint and Lime

    In a glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Squeeze the lime juice into the glass and then drop the lime half in as well. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves and mix them with the sugar and lime to release the mint oils.

  2. 2

    Add Rum

    Pour the white rum into the glass and stir gently to combine with the muddled mint, lime, and sugar mixture.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

  4. 4

    Top with Club Soda

    Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with a sprig of mint and a lime wedge, if desired. Serve immediately.
