Ingredients

  • 1.5 oz rum
  • 1 oz lime juice
  • 1 oz midori
  • Soda water to top
  • mint leaves for muddling and garnish
  • lime wheel for garnish

Instructions

  • Place fresh mint leaves and lime juice in a glass. Use a muddler to gently press the mint to release its oils.
  • Pour in the rum and midori, giving the glass a gentle stir to combine.
  • Fill the glass with ice and top with soda water to your preference.
  • Finish with a fresh mint leaf and a lime wheel for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Pro Tips
  • Be gentle when muddling mint to avoid tearing the leaves, which can release bitter flavors.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best balance of tartness and freshness.
  • Chill the soda water beforehand for a crisp and refreshing finish.
