1
Muddle Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and simple syrup. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice and Rum
Pour in the fresh lime juice and white rum over the muddled mint mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the mixture.
4
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice, filling the glass. Stir gently to mix all the ingredients together.

5
Garnish the Drink
Add a lime wedge on the rim of the glass and a sprig of mint for garnish. Serve immediately with a straw, if desired.
