1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves and sugar, releasing the mint oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. You can also add the lime halves to the glass for extra flavor. Stir the mixture to combine the mint, sugar, and lime juice.
3
Add Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass, and stir again to blend the ingredients thoroughly.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top. This will chill the mixture and make it refreshing.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice, filling the glass. If desired, you can adjust the amount of club soda based on your taste preference.
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.
