1
Prepare the Glass
Take a sturdy glass or a cocktail shaker and add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar.
2
Muddle the Ingredients
Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently muddle the mint leaves and sugar together to release the mint oils without tearing the leaves.
3
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice into the glass. You can use a lime squeezer for better extraction. Discard the used lime halves.
4
Mix the Base
Stir the mint, sugar, and lime juice mixture until the sugar is dissolved and the ingredients are well combined.
5
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum and mix gently to combine with the muddled mint and lime mixture.
6
Prepare for Serving
Fill the glass with ice cubes until it is nearly full.
7
Top with Club Soda
Pour club soda over the ice until the glass is filled to your liking. Stir gently to combine.
8
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the drink with a sprig of mint and a couple of lime wedges on the rim. Serve with a straw and enjoy!
