Ingredients

• ½ lime, cut into wedges
• 10 mint leaves, plus a sprig
• 2 tsp Sugar
• 200 ml soda water, chilled
• crushed or cubed ice

Method

1. Put the lime wedges and sugar in a tall glass and press them with a muddler to squeeze out the juice.
2. Add the mint leaves and press gently a few more times, just enough to bruise them.
3. Fill the glass with ice and top up with soda water.
4. Stir from the bottom to lift the mint and lime, taste for sweetness and garnish with a mint sprig.

Tips

• Swap half the soda for lemonade or ginger ale for a sweeter drink kids love.
• Make a jug: multiply by six and muddle in the jug, adding soda just before serving.
