There is a reason this drink is so popular. When properly made, this Cuban wonder is probably the most revitalising drink there is on a hot day.

SPECS:
60ml (2oz) white rum
20ml (2/3oz) fresh lime juice
20ml (2/3oz) sugar syrup
6 - 8 mint leaves
Top soda water (optional)
Crushed ice
Mint sprig to garnish
EQUIPMENT:
A jigger
A barspoon
A highball glass
A tea towel
A wooden mallet/rolling pin
A bar napkin
METHOD:
First you need to crush your ice if you don’t have a crushed ice machine to hand.
Some food processors are able to do it, otherwise wrap your ice securely in a tea towel or two and bash it with a wooden mallet or rolling pin until well broken up (although don’t stress too much, some larger and some smaller pieces are fine).
Add all of your ingredients to your glass and fill with ice to just under the top of the glass.
I don’t muddle - just give the mint a gentle clap - so as to keep the drink lighter and fresher, but if you do, do it gently.
Place your barspoon in the glass and cover the top with the bar napkin.
Churn through, add more ice and repeat until the glass is pretty much full and the mint is suspended through the drink.
Top with a cap of crushed ice and some soda water if you like a little spritz.
Garnish with a mint sprig, and enjoy!
