Method

Preparation Steps

1

Muddle the Mint

In a cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves. Use a muddler to gently press and twist the mint leaves to release their oils, being careful not to tear them too much.

2

Add Other Ingredients

To the shaker with the muddled mint, add the Cocalero, fresh lime juice, and simple syrup. Fill the shaker with ice cubes.

3

Shake the Mixture

Secure the lid on the shaker and shake vigorously for about 15 seconds to chill the mixture and combine the ingredients.

4

Strain into Glass

Place a strainer over a tall glass filled with ice cubes. Pour the shaken mixture into the glass, ensuring that the mint leaves are strained out.

5

Top with Soda Water

Gently top the drink with soda water, pouring it over the back of a spoon to maintain the layers.

6

Garnish and Serve

Garnish the drink with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw.
