A great drink that is the perfect balance between tart and sweet.
Ingredients:
1 lime, cut into wedges
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup fresh mint, plus more for garnish
1/2 cup light rum
1 cup soda water
2 pieces fresh sugar cane, stalks (optional)
Directions:
1. Combine the lime, sugar, and mint in a martini shaker or wide glass. Use a muddler or the handle of a wooden spoon to smash and crush everything together to release the oils and juice.
2. When there is a good amount of juice and the sugar begins to dissolve, add the rum and stir to combine.
3. Fill two glasses with ice, divide the mixture between glasses, and top off with some soda water. Garnish with a couple of mint leaves and sugar cane stalks.
