Ingredients
  • 1/2 bunch of mint leaves
  • 6 teaspoons of sugar (or sweeter if you prefer)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Angostura bitter
  • 1 lemon juice
  • 1 oz rum
  • 1 can ice cubes
  • 1 glass cold mineral carbonated water or soda club

Directions
  1. Divide the mint leaves in 2 tall glasses. Do not dice or cut them. Add the sugar ( 3 teaspoons in each glass or more... according to your taste) and divide Angostura bitter (you can find it at local supermarket). You will need a wooden crusher - if you do not have one use a honey spreader - this is what I use - and bruise that mint. Mix it up until sugar melts. Add the lemon juice and the rum and fill halfway the glass with ice. Add soda club/carbonated mineral water to fill the glass. Give it a whirl and enjoy!
