1
Muddle Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves too much.
2
Add Simple Syrup
Pour the simple syrup into the glass and stir gently to combine with the mint and lime mixture.
3
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum and mix well to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
5
Top with Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice, filling the glass to the brim. Stir gently to mix the ingredients without losing too much carbonation.
6
Garnish
Add a sprig of mint and a lime wedge for garnish. Serve immediately with a straw or a stirring stick.
