Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 10 leaves fresh mint plus extra sprig for garnish
  • 2 wedge lime for muddling
  • 1 fl oz fresh lime juice
  • 0.75 fl oz simple syrup (1:1 sugar to water) adjust to taste
  • 1.5 fl oz white rum preferably light rum
  • 3 fl oz chilled brut Champagne or dry sparkling wine
  • 1 fl oz club soda optional, for extra fizz
  • 0.75 cup crushed ice

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Chill a highball or flute glass in the freezer for a few minutes.
  • In the chilled glass, gently muddle the mint leaves with the lime wedges and simple syrup until aromatic—avoid shredding the leaves.
  • Add the lime juice and rum, then fill the glass three-quarters with crushed ice and stir to combine and chill.
  • Top with chilled Champagne and a splash of club soda. Give a brief, gentle stir to integrate without knocking out the bubbles.
  • Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and a lime wheel or extra wedge. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a slightly drier cocktail, reduce the simple syrup to 0.5 fl oz. If you prefer a sweeter sip, use a demi-sec sparkling wine. Always use very cold bubbly for the best effervescence.
