Preparation
Step 1
Muddle the mint together with the lime juice in a glass.
Step 2
Add a few large ice cubes, then pour in the rum and ginger beer.
Step 3
Finish the drink with additional garnishes, if desired.
Step 4
(*I strained out the mint leaves that I used to muddle with the lime juice after the first step. Then added in a few extra fresh mint leaves along with the lime wedges as a garnish. Just a personal preference, but you can totally leave the original mint leaves in the drink if you’d like.)
Step 5

Chef's notes
It's also the perfect party drink, and easy to customize for those who want it more minty (just muddle more mint), sweet (more ginger beer), tart (more lime), or boozy (more rum).
For those who don’t drink alcohol, this recipe makes a really yummy mocktail without the rum.
