Cocktail Ingredients

Method

Cocktail Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle Mint and Sugar

    In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils and mix with the sugar. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much; just gently bruise them.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Cut the lime into wedges. Squeeze the lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar, and drop in the wedges as well. Muddle the mixture again gently to combine the flavors.

  3. 3

    Add Rum and Ice

    Pour the white rum into the glass over the muddled mixture. Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top.

  4. 4

    Top with Club Soda

    Slowly pour the club soda over the ice and rum mixture, filling the glass to the top. Be cautious as the soda may fizz up.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Stir the cocktail gently to mix the ingredients. Garnish with a fresh sprig of mint on top. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer.
