Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle Mint and Sugar

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils, mixing them with the sugar.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour in the lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

  3. 3

    Pour in the Rum

    Add the white rum to the mixture and stir well to incorporate all ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them in to chill the cocktail.

  5. 5

    Top with Club Soda

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

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish the drink with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw or a stirring stick.
