Ingredients
Scale
- 6-8 Mint Leaves
- 30 ml Lemon Juice
- 20 ml Simple syrup
- Soda water (to top up)
- Ice Cubes
- Mint sprig and lime wedge (Optional garnish:)
Instructions
- Rinse mint leaves, cut lime wedges, and keep soda water chilled.
- In a highball glass, gently muddle mint leaves and simple syrup together to release aroma — avoid tearing the leaves.
- Pour in fresh lime juice for that signature zesty base.
- Add crushed ice to fill the glass, then top up with soda water.
- Stir for 10–15 seconds to mix the lime and mint evenly without losing carbonation.
- Garnish beautifully (optional): Add a mint sprig on top and a lime wedge on the rim for a classic, tropical look.
- Enjoy chilled — minty, tangy, and perfectly crisp.
- Optional tip: Swap soda water for ginger ale or add a splash of fruit syrup (like passion fruit or strawberry) for a flavored twist.
