Build and Muddle
Place the fresh mint leaves and simple syrup into a mixing glass or the serving glass. Gently muddle the mint 4–6 times — just enough to bruise the leaves and release aromatic oils without shredding them. This will create a fresh mint aroma without bitterness.

Add Spirits and Acid
Add 2 oz Jameson Irish Whiskey and 0.5 oz fresh lime juice to the glass with the muddled mint and simple syrup. Add 2 dashes of Angostura bitters.

Top and Garnish
Top the drink with approximately 1.5 oz club soda (adjust to taste) and give one gentle stir to combine. Garnish with a lime wheel or wedge on the rim and a fresh mint sprig slapped once between your palms (to release oils) and placed on top.

Serve immediately with a short straw or stirring stick so the drink can be re-stirred as it dilutes. Note: Adjust simple syrup or lime to taste for sweetness/acidity balance. For a stronger mint presence, lightly clap an extra few mint leaves over the glass before garnishing.
