  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • ½ cup club soda

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a sturdy glass, add the 10 mint leaves and 2 tablespoons simple syrup. Muddle gently with a muddler or spoon until the mint is fragrant, about 30 seconds.

    Fill the glass with the 1 cup ice cubes. Pour in the 0.5 cup club soda.
