Instructions

1. Muddle the Mint & Lime

In a sturdy glass, add the mint leaves, lime wedges, and sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently mash the ingredients together to release the lime juice and mint oils. Be careful not to over-muddle, or the mint can turn bitter.

2. Add the Rum & Ice

Pour in white rum and give it a quick stir. Fill the glass with ice cubes, almost to the top.

3. Top with Club Soda

Pour in club soda to fill the glass and give it a final gentle stir.

4. Garnish & Serve

Garnish with extra mint leaves and a lime slice. Serve with a straw and enjoy!
