To make the rich simple syrup for the mint limeade fizz, dissolve 1 cup of sugar into ½ cup of water in a small pot over the stove by stirring.
Once it boils, remove the pot from the heat and allow to cool.
To make the limeade fizz, add your desired amount of rich simple syrup to a pitcher.
Stir in lime juice.
Stir in carbonated water.
To make the sugar and zest mixture to line the rim of each glass, combine the zest of 1 lime with ¼ cup sugar in a plate.
Rub 1 lime wedge around the rim of each glass to slightly wet the rim. Dip the rim of each glass in the zest and sugar mixture to coat.
Add a couple thin lime wedges and a pinch of sliced mint leaves to each glass. Muddle them with the back of a wooden spatula to release the flavors in each glass.
Add crushed ice to the top of each glass. Add the limeade fizz and enjoy!
