1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently crush the mint leaves to release their oils, mixing well with the sugar.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass, making sure to catch any seeds. You can also drop the spent lime halves into the glass for added flavor.
3
Pour in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass, mixing it in with the muddled mint, sugar, and lime juice.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top, ensuring that the mixture is chilled.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice and mixture, filling the glass. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without losing the carbonation.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
