Finger Lime Cocktail or Mocktail

• 3-6 finger limes, depending on the size
• 5 large mint leaves
• 1 1/2 oz gin or tequila. If you are looking for a non-alcoholic, mocktail alternative we recommend as a tequila alternative Spiritless Jalisco 55 and gin Ritual Zero Proof
• 1/2 oz lime juice
• Soda water

Cut the finger limes in half and squeeze out the pearls into a rocks glass, throw in the mint leaves and muddle with the end of a wooden spoon. Fill the glass with ice and pour in the gin and lime juice, stir before topping off with soda water.
