1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the mint leaves to release their essential oils, mixing them with the sugar. Do not shred the leaves; just bruise them slightly.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. Add the lime wedges into the glass for extra flavor. Muddle the mixture lightly again to combine the flavors.
3
Pour the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass and stir gently to mix with the mint, sugar, and lime juice.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without disturbing the mint too much.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge. Serve immediately with a straw or a stirring stick.
