Directions:
Make simple syrup: Heat equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan until just before boiling and stir until the sugar has completely dissolved. Once dissolved, remove from heat. Throw in several sprigs of mint and cover until cool.

Place the mint leaves and 1 tbsp. of the mint-infused syrup (cooled) in the glass, then squish it all around with a spoon (or whatever appropriate utensil you can find) for 20-30 seconds, until you can smell that good minty smell.

Cut the lime in half. Squeeze the juice out from both halves into the glass, then drop one half into the glass.

Pour in the rum and stir

Add plenty of ice, then top off the mixture with club soda. Garnish with a sprig of mint and enjoy!
