Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries hulled
  • 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves
  • 2 tbsp Granulated sugar or simple syrup
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • crushed ice
  • 1/2 cup white rum
  • club soda for topping
  • lices of strawberry or lime wheels ro sprigs of mint for garnish

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In two highball glasses, muddle strawberries, fresh lime juice, granulated sugar, and mint leaves with a muddler or the back of a spoon. You don't want to destroy the fresh mint leaves, just bruise them a little to release the oils.
  2. Add ice, pour in the silver rum,, and top with soda water.
  3. Garnish with lime slices, slices of strawberry, or a sprig of mint.

Notes

  • For a larger group, let's make a pitcherful of the good stuff. It's made a little differently than the in-glass traditional version. You'll make a strawberry puree in the blender and a minty simple syrup (1 part water, 1 part sugar, and a few mint springs), since muddling is going to be difficult in a pitcher.
  • The rest is simple: ice, rum, club soda, stir. Then serve to your guests!
  • Want all the sweet flavor of this strawberry cocktail but make it alcohol-free?
  • Take out the rum, add in either a splash of rum extract for the flavor and fill with club soda, or just use the club soda or whatever bubbly mixer you like.
