Only this sheet prints - the size above is what it is set to.
Ingredients
- 300 ml White rum
- 150 ml Lime juice
- 90 ml Simple syrup
- 48 leaves Mint
- 300 ml Soda water
- 6 sprigs Mint sprig (optional)
Pitcher (6 drinks) - about 840 ml of measured ingredients, before ice and dilution.
Timings and per-glass steps are written for one drink and are not scaled. A full jug takes longer to chill, so stir or shake until it is properly cold rather than by the clock, and pour over fresh ice one glass at a time.
Quick version
- Press mint, lime and syrup in the glass, then add rum and ice.
- Churn, top with soda and add a mint sprig.
Method
- Drop the mint leaves into a highball glass with the lime juice and syrup.
- Press them gently with a muddler - you want the oils, not shredded leaves.
- Half fill with crushed ice, add the rum and churn with a spoon to lift the mint up the glass.
- Top with more ice and the soda water, then add a slapped mint sprig.
