1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently muddle the mint and sugar together, releasing the mint oils.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime into wedges and squeeze the juice into the glass. Add the wedges to the glass as well.
3
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum over the muddled mint, sugar, and lime.
4
Mix and Add Ice
Stir the mixture well to combine all the flavors. Fill the glass with ice cubes.
5
Top with Soda Water
Pour soda water over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge. Serve immediately.
