1
Muddle the 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 bottom of the glass to release their essential oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves into small pieces.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass over the muddled mint and sugar. You can also drop one half into the glass for added flavor.
3
Add Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass with the muddled mint, sugar, and lime juice.
4
Mix with Club Soda
Fill the glass with ice cubes and slowly top it off with club soda. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
5
Garnish and Serve
Finally, garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw for sipping.
