- 10 mint leaves
- 1 lime
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- ½ cup club soda
- ice
Place 10 large mint leaves at the bottom of a glass. Add the juice of half a lime, and the maple syrup. Muddle them together for about a minute. Muddling crushes the leaves and releases the flavor and oils of the mint.
Add two wedges (¼) of a lime. Muddle again to release the juices for about 30 seconds.
Add ice to the top of the glass. Pour the club soda over the ice. Stir to mix together. Garnish with a wedge of lime, and a sprig of mint!
- Use fresh lime juice. Muddling the lime and mint together releases the oils and flavor of both the mint and lime, giving this drink a distinctly tart flavor.
- If you do not have a muddling tool, use the back of a wooden spoon.
- If you want to make this for a crowd no problem! Adjust the serving sizes, and use a large pitcher to muddle the lime and mint. Or you can do each individual glass, but that will take you some extra time, and if you're having a party, you want to enjoy your guests!
