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 crush the mint leaves to release their oils and flavor, mixing them with the sugar.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. Drop one half of the lime into the glass for added flavor.
3
Mix in the Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass, mixing it with the muddled mint, sugar, and lime juice to combine the flavors.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, allowing them to settle over the mixture.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. Use a spoon to gently stir the drink to combine all the ingredients.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the drink with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge, then serve immediately with a straw.
