Time 3m

Yield 1 drink

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lime
1 tablespoon superfine sugar
2 ounces gin
Crushed ice

Steps:

  • Cut up a lime into 8 wedges. Muddle the wedges in a rocks glass with sugar. Add gin and top with ice. Stir and serve.

Tips:

  • Cut the limes into wedges before juicing them. This will help to extract more juice from the limes.
  • Use a muddler to crush the limes, sugar, and mint leaves in a glass. This will help to release the flavors of the ingredients.
  • Fill the glass with ice before adding the rum. This will help to keep the drink cold and refreshing.
  • Garnish the drink with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. This will add a touch of extra flavor and color to the drink.
