Base and Flavor

Method

Drinks

  1. 1

    Chill a tall highball glass in the freezer for 1–2 minutes, or rinse with cold water and place on a towel to chill.

  2. 2

    In the chilled glass, add the mint leaves and simple syrup. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently muddle until the leaves release their aroma and the syrup becomes infused with mint, about 8–10 seconds. Avoid tearing the leaves into shreds.

  3. 3

    Pour in the fresh lime juice and give the mixture a quick stir to combine with the mint infusion.

  4. 4

    Fill the glass with ice cubes (about 4–6 cubes) to create a chilly base.

  5. 5

    Pour the Sierra Mist soda over the ice, allowing it to flow gently to minimize foam. Stir lightly to blend the mint-lime flavors with the soda.

  6. 6

    Garnish with a lime wheel on the rim and a small sprig of mint. Serve immediately.
