For a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the rum and add extra club soda. Adjust the simple syrup to your desired level of sweetness. Taste as you go! If you don't have simple syrup, you can make your own by combining equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Let cool completely before using. Experiment with different types of mint, such as spearmint or chocolate mint, for a unique flavor profile. For an extra festive touch, rim the glasses with sugar before serving.
