2 oz light rum
1 large fresh lime
2 tsp sugar
1 small handful of fresh mint
soda water
Place sugar, mint, and just a splash of soda water in a tall glass. Use spoon to lightly press mint and stir to dissolve sugar. Squeeze all the juice of the lime into the glass, leaving one hull in the mixture. Add rum, stir, and fill with ice. Top with soda water and garnish with a sprig of mint.
A cool, aromatic drink for a hot summer's day.
