Ingredients
- 12 mint leaves
- 2 ounces fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon super fine sugar
- 1/2 cup crushed ice
- 2 ounces white rum
- 2 to 3 ounces club soda chilled
- 2 wedges lime garnish
- Mint sprig garnish
Instructions
- Place the mint leaves in a highball glass and add the lime juice and sugars and gently muddle: press down on the mint leaves, lime juice, and sugars with a wooden spoon or muddler. Muddling releases the oils from the mint leaves. You don’t want shredded leaves floating around in the drink and getting stuck between your teeth—so muddle gently.
- After muddling add crushed ice and rum, and top off with club soda. Garnish with a lime wedge and a mint sprig.
Notes
- Feel free to substitute the sugar with 1 ounce of simple syrup or agave nectar.
- Serve with a sugar cane swizzle stick or a wooden chopstick to keep the different flavors well blended.
- Make a No-Jito mocktail by replacing the rum with more club soda.
