Muddle the lime
Squeeze the lime wedges into a highball glass and drop them in. Add the sugar and muddle with a cocktail muddler until the sugar starts to dissolve and the lime releases its juice. A wooden spoon handle works fine if you don't have a muddler.

Add ice and mint
Fill the glass with ice. Firmly slap the mint sprigs between your palms or press them with the side of a spoon to bruise them and release their flavor — don't shred them. Arrange the mint against the sides of the glass.

Build the drink
Pour the rum and chilled club soda into the glass. Give it a quick stir with a long spoon. Garnish with a fresh mint sprig and a lime slice.
