- <strong>1.</strong> Cut lime in half (from pole to pole) and then slice one of the halves into eight 3-4mm thick half-moon shaped segments and drop into the base of a robust rocks glass
- <strong>2.</strong> Add 3 bar spoons caster sugar (or ½oz/15ml sugar syrup 2:1) and MUDDLE
- <strong>3.</strong> Add slices of banana and MUDDLE some more
- <strong>4.</strong> When sure fruit juice is fully extracted and the sugar dissolved, transfer the muddled fruit and sugar into serving glass (preferably a 30cl / 10oz highball glass)
