1
Muddle Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and simple syrup. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves to release their oils, being careful not to tear them too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and syrup mixture.
3
Incorporate Rum
Add the white rum into the glass, mixing it gently with the muddled mint, lime juice, and syrup.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with crushed ice to the top.
5
Top with Soda
Slowly pour club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine.
6
Garnish
Garnish the drink with lime wedges and a sprig of fresh mint for added aroma and presentation.
