Preparation
- 1
Muddle the Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and the lime cut into wedges. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint and lime to release their juices and oils. Be careful not to over-muddle, as you only want to release the flavors.

Add Sugar
Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the muddled mint and lime. Use the muddler again to mix the sugar with the mint and lime, ensuring it begins to dissolve.

Mix in the Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass over the muddled mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
