3 fresh mint sprigs
2 tsp sugar
3 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 1/2 oz light rum
club soda
In a tall thin glass, crush part of the mint with a fork to coat the inside. Add the sugar and lime juice and stir thoroughly. Top with ice. Add rum and mix. Top off with *chilled* club soda (or seltzer). Add a lime slice and the remaining mint, and serve.

I like the composition, and it's a good shot. The drop on the lemon is a nice touch.
I think it could use a litte more room on the left of the glass.
Using a tripod would make this picture a bit less blurry.
Also, the background draws some attention away from the picture.
Like: i like the simplistic point of view and common color of green used in the photo
Dislike: quality is a bit low and focus seems to be almost not in the photo, possibly in front of the lime
Good attempt. It seems to be a little out of focus though and the background is a bit distracting. I can't wait to see the recipe though, the drink looks refreshing.
