Ingredients

  • 15 spearmint leaves
  • 1 tablespoon extra fine sugar
  • 2 large ripe strawberries
  • Juice of 2-3 key limes*
  • 2 ounces lemon rum I used Bacardi Limon
  • 6 ounces club soda
  • ice

Instructions

  • In a cocktail shaker or quart Mason jar muddle the sugar and mint leaves.
  • Add the strawberries and lime juice; muddle to completely break down the berries.
  • Add the citrus rum and a large handful of ice. Shake vigorously.
  • Strain into a 16-ounce glass with fresh ice. Fill with club soda.

Notes

*the key limes I used were very small (about an inch in diameter).  I would suggest using the juice of 1-2 limes, tasting the cocktail when mixed and adding more lime juice should your taste feel it’s warranted.
+muddling is combining ingredients, usually sugar and herbs, in the bottom of a glass and mashing together with a wooden cylinder used for this purpose.
