Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Cream sugar, butter, and lime zest together in a medium mixing bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add eggs, fully incorporating 1 at a time. Mix in vanilla extract, mint extract, and rum extract.
Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a separate bowl. Mix into the egg mixture about ⅓ at a time, making sure flour is fully incorporated before adding the next batch.
Let chill in a refrigerator to allow the lime zest to impart greater flavor into the batter, up to 1 hour. Remove and allow to return to room temperature, about 20 minutes.
Spoon tablespoons of batter onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are light golden brown, about 10 minutes, turning halfway through baking time. Allow to cool on the cookie sheets.
