1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves to release their essential oils. Be careful not to tear them into small pieces.
2
Add the Liquids
Pour the Bacardi rum, lime juice, and simple syrup over the muddled mint in the glass or shaker. This will combine the flavors of the mint with the rum and sweetener.
3
Mix the Ingredients
If using a shaker, seal it and shake gently to mix the ingredients. If using a glass, stir the ingredients with a bar spoon to combine well.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top. If using a shaker, strain the mixture into a glass filled with ice.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice and rum mixture. This will add a refreshing fizz to the drink.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your drink with a sprig of mint or a lime wedge, if desired. Serve immediately with a straw.
