Muddled mint and lime lengthened with rum and soda.
Add 2 tsp sugar, the juice of half a lime and a generous handful of fresh mint to a highball glass. Muddle gently to release the mint oils without shredding the leaves. Fill with crushed ice, pour in 2 oz white rum, and top with soda water. Stir from the bottom up to mix and frost the glass, then crown with more crushed ice and a sprig of mint.
