    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves to release their oils without tearing them.

    Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture.

  3. 3

    Mix in the Rum

    Add the white rum to the glass and stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

  5. 5

    Top with Soda Water

    Pour the soda water over the ice and gently stir to mix.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw.
