1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently muddle the mint and sugar together to release the mint oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar. Stir the mixture lightly to combine and dissolve the sugar.
3
Add Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass, stirring gently to mix all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Gently pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is nearly full. Give it a gentle stir to combine all the ingredients.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim. Serve immediately with a straw if desired.
