Ingredients
  

  • white sugar for rimming
  • 2 large limes quartered
  • ½ bunch mint leaves
  • 7 strawberries quartered
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 2 cups club soda
  • 1 cup white rum

Method
 

  1. Pour about 1/2 inch of sugar onto a small, shallow plate. Run a lime wedge around the rims of 8 cocktail glasses, then dip the rims into sugar to coat; set aside.
  2. Squeeze all of the lime wedges into a sturdy glass pitcher. Toss juiced limes into the pitcher along with mint, strawberries, and 1 cup sugar. Crush with a muddler to release strawberry juice and mint oil. Stir in club soda and rum until sugar has dissolved.
