How to Make It

All you’ll need to do is muddle fresh mint leaves with lime juice (fresh is best!) in a glass. Pour in a little simple syrup, ice and top with club soda. Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and sliced lime. Garnish isn’t required, but sure does make for a beautiful presentation!

What is a Muddler?

A muddler is a tool used to mash herbs, spices and fruits for mocktails and cocktails. Muddling releases the flavors and is essential for making mojitos. If you don’t have a muddler, you can use the handle of a wooden spoon.
