Step-by-Step Instructions
1

Muddle mint and lemon juice

In a sturdy glass, gently muddle 6-8 fresh mint leaves with 0.75 ounce (22 ml) fresh lemon juice. Muddle just enough to bruise the leaves and release their aroma, without tearing them excessively.

💡 Tips:

  • •Over-muddling can make mint bitter. Gentle pressing and twisting is sufficient.
Estimated time: 1 min
2

Add sweetener and ice

Add 0.5 ounce (15 ml) simple syrup (or dissolved sugar) to the glass. Fill the glass with 1 serving of ice.

💡 Tips:

  • •Adjust the amount of simple syrup or sugar to your preferred level of sweetness and the tartness of the lemon.
Estimated time: 1 min
3

Top with sparkling water

Pour 0.75 cup (180 ml) chilled sparkling water or club soda over the ice and lemon-mint mixture. Stir gently once or twice to combine.

💡 Tips:

  • •Add the sparkling water slowly and stir minimally to preserve the carbonation.
Estimated time: 2 min
4

Garnish and serve

Garnish with 1 lemon wheel and 1 fresh mint sprig, if desired. Serve immediately.

💡 Tips:

  • •Serve immediately to ensure the drink is at its most effervescent and cold.
Estimated time: 1 min

Fun Fact
The combination of mint and lemon has been a popular pairing in beverages across many cultures for centuries, prized for its refreshing and palate-cleansing qualities. The addition of 'fizz' from carbonated water elevates this simple combination into a light and celebratory drink.
Bartender's Tips
  • 💡For an extra fruity twist, muddle a few fresh berries (like raspberries or blueberries) along with the mint and lemon.
  • 💡Use flavored sparkling water (e.g., lime or lemon-flavored) for an additional layer of taste.
  • 💡To make a larger batch, prepare the lemon-mint-sweetener base in a pitcher and add sparkling water to individual glasses just before serving.
  • 💡Consider using a lemon-lime soda instead of sparkling water and simple syrup for a sweeter, quicker version.
