1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and simple syrup. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves to release their oils, being careful not to shred them.
2
Add Lime Juice and Rum
Pour the fresh lime juice and white rum into the glass with the muddled mint. Stir gently to combine the ingredients without damaging the mint further.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
4
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is nearly full. Stir gently to mix the ingredients.
5
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw.
