Method
Preparation
- 1
Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press and twist the mint leaves to release their oils, while mixing with the sugar. Do this for about 10-15 seconds.
- 2
Add Lime Juice
Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients well.
- 3
Add Rum
Measure and add the white rum to the glass, stirring again to ensure all ingredients are well blended.
- 4
Add Soda Water
Slowly pour the soda water into the glass, allowing it to mix with the other ingredients. Stir gently to combine, being careful not to lose too much carbonation.

Garnish
Add a lime wedge on the rim of the glass and a sprig of mint for garnish.
