Method

Step 1

Add the sugar syrup, mint leaves and lime wedges to a Collins glass. Then, using a muddler, rolling pin or large spoon, press down on them lightly to extract the aroma and flavour.

Step 2

Half-fill your glass with crushed ice.

Step 3

Using a jigger, measure 50ml Captain Morgan Original Spiced Gold into the glass and top with soda water. Stir with a bar spoon.

Garnish

Add more crushed ice to fill the glass and place a mint sprig on top of the drink to garnish.

Step 5

Get some grub in before or while you’re drinking – it slows alcohol absorption.
