Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves to release their essential oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves too much.

Add Lime Juice
Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

Add Rum
Add the white rum to the mixture and stir again to blend all the flavors.

Add Soda Water
Fill the glass with ice cubes, and top off with soda water. Gently stir to combine without losing the carbonation.
