Servings 1
Ingredients
- 1 medium peach seed removed and cut into about ½-inch pieces.
- 4 large mint leaves
- 1 tablespoon simple syrup
- 1 ½ teaspoons lime juice
- 2 ounces white rum ¼ cup
- ½ cup club soda
Instructions
- Place peaches, mint leaves, simple syrup, and lime juice in a cocktail shaker. Muddle the peaches and mint leaves using a muddler (use the back of a large wooden spoon if you don't have a muddler).
- Strain into a 16-ounce glass that has been filled with ice.
- Pour in rum, then top with club soda.
- Garnish with a peach slice, lime slice, and mint sprig (if desired).
Notes
- To prepare simple syrup: Combine equal amounts of granulated white sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat until sugar is dissolved, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely.
- For more peach flavor, use a large peach instead of a medium.
