Ingredients
  

  • 1 medium apple sliced thinly, for garnish & muddling
  • ½ cup apple juice (unsweetened preferred)
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger finely grated
  • 8-10 fresh mint leaves
  • 2 tbsp lime juice freshly squeezed
  • 2 tsp sugar or honey
  • 4 oz white rum
  • ½ cup soda water (club soda)
  • Ice cubes as needed

Instructions
 

  • In a sturdy glass, muddle the mint leaves, ginger, lime juice, and sugar together to release aromas and flavor.
  • Add apple slices and lightly press them with the muddler.
  • Fill the glass with ice cubes.
  • Pour in the white rum and apple juice. Stir well.
  • Top with soda water and give it a gentle stir.
  • Garnish with extra apple slices, mint sprigs, and a thin slice of lime. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a non-alcoholic version, skip the rum and add more apple juice & soda water.
  • Adjust sweetness with sugar, honey, or agave syrup.
  • For stronger ginger flavor, muddle more ginger or add a splash of ginger ale instead of club soda.
  • Do not prepare far in advance, as mint and apple will oxidize.
