Preparation
- 1
Muddle the Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Squeeze the juice from the lime and add the lime wedges to the glass. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint and lime together to release the mint oils and lime juice. Do not over-muddle to avoid bitter flavors from the mint.
