Yield: 1 drink

    Ingredients

  • 1/2 lime cut into 4 wedges
  • small handful of fresh mint leaves
  • 3 tablespoons gin
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • Club soda

    Directions

  1. Put the lime wedges in a highball glass and use a muddler to crush the limes.
  2. Add the mint leaves and gently muddle again. You want to lightly bruise the mint, but you don't want to tear it into little bits.
  3. Fill the glass with ice and then pour in the gin and lime juice. Top it off with club soda. Give it a stir to combine and then garnish with a sprig of mint.
