Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 leaves Fresh mint leaves
- 1 whole Lime
- 2 oz Limoncello liqueur
- 2 oz White rum
- 1 oz Simple syrup
- 4 oz Club soda
- 1 cup Crushed ice
- 1 slice Lime wheel (for garnish)
- 1 piece Mint sprig (for garnish)
Instructions
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves.
Cut the lime in half. Squeeze the juice from one half of the lime into the glass or shaker, then cut the other half into wedges and set aside.
Use a muddler or the back of a wooden spoon to gently press and bruise the mint leaves, releasing their essential oils into the lime juice.
Pour in the limoncello liqueur, white rum, and simple syrup, stirring or shaking to combine the liquids.
Fill the glass with crushed ice, packing it tightly.
Top off with club soda, pouring it slowly over the ice to maintain the bubbles.
Stir gently to incorporate all the ingredients without flattening the carbonation.
Garnish with a lime wheel and a sprig of fresh mint on top.
Serve with a straw and enjoy immediately!
