Instructions
- Blend peeled, chopped mango until smooth. (Or mash very well with a fork). Set aside 2 oz puree.
- Place mint leaves and fresh lime juice in a strong glass.
- Press mint gently 3-4 times with a muddler to release oils. Do not shred the leaves.
- Add 2 oz mango puree and the simple syrup to the glass.
- Fill the glass almost completely full with ice cubes.
- Pour chilled club soda over the ice until the glass is full.
- Use a long spoon to stir carefully from the bottom up, mixing without losing fizz.

Notes
- Mix equal parts hot water and sugar until dissolved. Cool before use.
- Use ripe, sweet mangoes (like Honey/Ataulfo) for best flavor and texture.
- Bruise mint lightly to avoid bitterness.
- Taste and add more simple syrup or lime juice if needed.
- For a pitcher, multiply ingredients. Muddle in pitcher, add puree/syrup. Add ice and club soda just before serving.
