1
Muddle 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 crush the mint leaves with the sugar. This releases the mint oils and helps dissolve the sugar.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour in the freshly squeezed lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the flavors.
3
Pour in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass, mixing it with the mint, sugar, and lime juice.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to your preference.
5
Top with Soda Water
Pour the soda water over the ice, filling the glass to the top. Stir gently to mix all the ingredients without losing the carbonation.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw for sipping.
