Ingredients
  

  • 0.25 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 0.5 cup fresh mint leaves loosely packed
  • 1 cup apple cider chilled
  • 1 cup club soda chilled
  • 2 cups ice

Equipment

  • 1 pitcher

Method
 

  1. Add the lime juice, sugar, and mint leaves to a pitcher.
  2. Gently muddle with a muddler or the end of a wooden spoon until the mint is fragrant.
  3. Stir in the apple cider until the sugar dissolves.
  4. Gently stir in the club soda.
  5. Divide the ice between two glasses.
  6. Pour the cider mixture over the ice.

Notes

For the freshest flavor, serve right after adding the club soda. Refrigerate leftovers without ice for up to 1 day; the club soda will lose its fizz. Freezing is not recommended. For a lower-sugar drink, reduce the granulated sugar to taste.
