1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down and twist, releasing the mint's essential oils and mixing it with the sugar. Be careful not to shred the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime into quarters. Squeeze the juice from the lime wedges into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar. Drop the wedges into the glass for added flavor.
3
Mix in the Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, almost to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the drink with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
