Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mint

    In a mixing glass, gently muddle the fresh mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear them too much; you want to bruise them, not pulverize.

  2. 2

    Mix Ingredients

    Add the fresh lime juice and agave syrup to the muddled mint leaves in the mixing glass. Stir well to combine the ingredients thoroughly.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill a serving glass with ice cubes to the top.

  4. 4

    Combine with Sparkling Water

    Pour the lime and mint mixture over the ice cubes in the serving glass. Top with sparkling water, stirring gently to combine.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Garnish the Drink

    Add a lime wheel and a sprig of mint to the top of the drink for garnish. This adds a refreshing aroma and enhances the presentation.
