    Pour the fresh lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine.

    Add Rum

    Pour the white rum into the glass and stir again to mix all the ingredients together.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

  5. 5

    Top with Club Soda

    Pour club soda over the ice to fill the glass and give it a refreshing fizz.
