Ingredients
- 3 large sprigs fresh mint plus extra for garnish
- 2 shots limoncello
- 2 shots white rum
- soda water for topping
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 lemon cut into wedges
- ice
Equipment
- Cocktail shaker or large glass
- Cocktail muddles or wooden pestle
Instructions
- Put the mint leaves,sugar and fresh lemon in a large cocktail shaker and muddle, bashing the lemon and mint until most of the juice is released.
- Add the limoncello and run and top the shaker with ice. Shake until thoroughly mixed and ice cold.
- Divide the cocktail between to high ball glasses filled with ice and top up with soda water. Garnish with mint and lemon if desired.
Notes
- Go for a good quality limoncello (homemade is best and way cheaper) but cheap store-bought varieties are often made with artificial lemon powders and don't taste nice.
- Make sure to fill the glass with ice to keep the drink nice and chilled.
- Bashing the mint and lemon juice releases a ton of flavour and juice. Make sure to do it with a wooden pestle if you don't have a cocktail kit so you don't break the glass.
- To make it virgin (without alcohol) replace the rum and limoncello with a good fizzy lemonade such as San Pellegrino Limonata and garnish with more mint. It'll be super refreshing and zingy without the booze!
