Ingredients
- 6-8 mint leaves
- 4 teaspoon sugar
- 2 teaspoon lemon juice
- ½ sliced Jalapeno
- 1 cup mango puree
- 4 ounces white rum
- ice cubes
- club soda
Instructions
- Add 6-8 mint leaves and 4 teaspoon sugar to a cocktail shaker.
- Note – You can use honey or maple syrup in place of sugar.
- Muddle using a muddler or the back of a spoon until mint leaves are macerated. This step is important to release the flavor of mint.
- Add 2 teaspoon lemon juice, ½ sliced jalapeño, 1 cup mango puree, and 4 oz white rum to the shaker and shake well.
- Fill 2 tall glasses with ice cubes.
- Add the mango mix to the glasses equally.
- Top with club soda. Garnish with mint leaves and lemon slices. Serve immediately.
Notes
If you want that restaurant-like touch in your drink, dip the rim of the glasses in water and then dip in powdered sugar or pink salt.
Like to have a variation? Substitute the lemon juice with orange juice and add some orange rind slices to the glass.
You can also add in some mango cubes inside the drink, for a nice bite in between.
If you are using a canned mango puree, adjust the amount of sugar accordingly, as you don't want your drink to be extra sweet.
