Ingredients

Method

1
Gently muddle 1 fresh mint sprig with 1 tsp sugar in a cocktail shaker, pressing lightly to release the mint's essential oils without bruising the leaves.
2
Add the quartered peach pieces to the shaker and lightly muddle together until the peach is broken down and juices are released.
3
Pour 1½ oz light or dark rum and the juice of 1 lime into the shaker with the muddled mixture.
4
Fill the shaker with ice cubes and shake vigorously for 10-12 seconds until well-chilled.
5
Strain the mixture into a glass filled with fresh ice cubes, leaving the muddled fruit solids behind in the shaker.
6
Garnish the glass with a remaining fresh mint sprig and serve immediately.
