Scale
- a small handful of fresh mint leaves (save a few leaves for garnish)
- 1 lime, sliced and cut into quarters (save 1 slice for garnish)
- 1 tbsp agave syrup (add less or more to taste)
- ice cubes
- 2 oz white rum
- sparkling water
Instructions
- Place the mint leaves, cut up lime, and agave into a tall glass and using a muddler crush them to release the mint oils and lime juice.
- Top up with ice cubes and pour in the rum.
- Pour in the sparkling water almost to the top, add the remaining lime slice, and garnish with some mint leaves.
- Serve with a glass straw and enjoy immediately.
Notes
You can use coconut sugar or maple syrup if you don't have agave but coconut sugar is going to make the drink a bit darker.
