1
Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves against the sugar, releasing the mint oils. Do this for about 10-15 seconds.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. You can also drop one half of the lime into the glass for extra flavor. Muddle gently to combine with the mint and sugar.
3
Add Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass and stir well to mix all the ingredients together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, ensuring the glass is filled to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice-filled glass until it’s full. Give it a gentle stir to combine.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim. Serve immediately with a straw.
