Ingredients
- 1 ½ fluid ounces white rum
- 2 fluid ounces club soda
- 8-10 fresh mint leaves
- ¾ fluid ounce fresh lime juice
- ½ fluid ounce simple syrup
- ice cubes
Instructions
- Add the mint leaves, fresh lime juice and simple syrup to a highball glass. Press the mint gently a few times with a muddler to release the aroma without shredding the leaves.
- Fill the glass with ice, then pour in the white rum.
- Top with about 2 ounces of club soda and stir gently.
- Garnish with fresh mint and a lime wheel. Serve with a straw if desired.
Notes
"
- For a party: Pre-squeeze the lime juice and use simple syrup so guests can build drinks quickly.
- Muddle gently: A few presses are enough to release the mint aroma; over-muddling can make the drink grassy or bitter.
- Keep the fizz fresh: Use smaller bottles or cans of club soda and open them as needed.
- Zero-proof: Omit the rum and add a little extra club soda, or offer a clearly labeled zero-proof white-rum alternative.
