Raspberry Mojito

🧂 Ingredients

• ¼ cup raspberries
• 1 lime

  cut into wedges
• 1 ounce simple syrup

  homemade or store-bought, preferably homemade
• 8-10 fresh mint leaves
• 2 ounces white rum
• Ice
• Splash of chilled club soda
• Mint sprig

  for garnish

Instructions

• 1 In a highball glass with a sturdy bottom, add the raspberries, lime wedges and
  simple syrup. Muddle until the raspberries break down.
• 2 Add the mint leaves. Gently muddle a few times. Don't feel like you need to
  overdo it here. We just want to release the oils and fragrance.
• 3 Pour in the rum. Add a handful of ice. Stir a few times to chill. (See notes if
  you prefer to make your mojito in a cocktail shaker.)
• 4 Top with club soda. Gently stir to combine.
• 5 Place the mint sprig in the palm of your hand. Quickly clap your other hand on
  top to release the mint's fragrance. Add the sprig to the glass. Enjoy!
