Equipment

Ingredients

2 sprigs fresh mint leaves
1 lime
1 orange
2 oz white rum
1 tsp granulated sugar
ice
8 oz 7-Up

Instructions

Muddle mint leaves in the bottom of a cocktail shaker.
Cut the lime and orange into quarters and squeeze the juice into the shaker. Add the entire lime wedges and orange wedges into the shaker and muddle those with the mint.
Pour in the rum. Add the sugar and shake until the sugar dissolves.
Pour the entire contents of the shaker into a serving glass. Fill the glass with ice then top with 7-Up until the glass is full. If the soda is already cold, you could put in less ice. Then gently stir everything without agitating the 7-Up too much.
If you’re feeling fancy, garnish with a lime slice, an orange slice, or a sprig of mint leaves.
