Instructions
In a blender, combine the fresh mint leaves, white rum, freshly squeezed lime juice, and simple syrup. Blend until the mint is finely chopped and the mixture looks smooth, about 30 seconds.
Add the crushed ice to the blender. Pulse until you achieve a frosty, slushie-like consistency. It should look like a snow cone in a glass.
Pour the frojito (yes, that's what you can call it) into a chilled glass. Garnish with a sprig of mint. Serve with a straw.
