-
Pick a good amount of mint leaves and place them in a highball glass (use more than you think you need. Somewhere around 12)
-
Juice a lime and add one of the halves to the glass
-
Use a muddler(or the back of a spoon) to express oils from the lime and mint(you want to bruise the leaves but not pulverize them)
-
Add 2 Oz of a good white rum(this is the star of the drink so make sure it’s good. I recommend Havana club if you live outside the US.)
-
Add 3/4 Oz of the lime juice you squeezed earlier
-
Add between 1 and 2 Oz of simple syrup, depending on how sweet you want it to be. (Personally I go for 1.5)
-
Add ice and stir until the glass is uncomfortable to hold(about 60 seconds)
-
Top with club soda until the glass is completely full
-
Add a straw and garnish with a lime wheel and a mint sprig
Several of my guests requested them. I didn't know how to make one. So I called the help line

You lost me first at the spoon, not sure how to get one of those, but “simple syrup”, OK it’s sugar water?

The title is a very awkward set up for a mid joke.

I used to think those billboards saying “Pregnant? Need help? Call us at 1-800-555-1234” were abortion hotlines
