Instructions

  1. Fill a 12-ounce highball glass with ice and set aside.
  2. In a cocktail shaker, add the rum, lime juice, sugar and mint leaves.
  3. Using a cocktail muddler or the back of a spoon, lightly press on the mint leaves to release some of the oils until fragrant. Be careful not to overmuddle and completely tear the leaves to little pieces - just keep pressing on them with the muddler until the drink is super fragrant.
  4. Cover and shake to combine. Pour into the prepared glass and top it off with a splash of club soda.
  5. Garnish with fresh lime slices and a sprig of mint.
