Ingredients:

• 10–12 fresh mint leaves

• ½ lime, cut into 2–3 wedges

• 1–2 tbsp sugar or simple syrup

• ¼ cup (2 oz) cranberry juice (unsweetened or cocktail)

• 1.5 oz white rum

• Ice

• Club soda or seltzer

• Garnish: fresh cranberries, mint sprig, lime slice

Instructions:

1️⃣ Muddle mint, lime wedges, and sugar/simple syrup in a highball glass—gently to release flavor without bitterness.

2️⃣ Mix in the white rum and cranberry juice. Stir well.

3️⃣ Ice & Fizz – Fill the glass with ice and top with club soda.

4️⃣ Garnish & Serve with cranberries, lime, and fresh mint.

Tips for Success:

✨ Don’t over-muddle the mint

✨ Always use fresh lime juice

✨ Batch ahead by mixing rum + juices, then add soda and mint just before serving

Optional Variations:

• Sweeter: use cranberry juice cocktail

• More Tart: unsweetened cranberry juice, less syrup

• Mocktail: skip the rum and add extra soda or ginger ale
