Mojito

Ingredients

• 60 ml white rum
• 25 ml lime juice
• 15 ml sugar syrup
• A generous handful of mint
• Soda water, to top
• Ice

Method

1. Clap the mint between your hands and drop it in the glass — that wakes the oil up without shredding the leaves. Bruised mint tastes of lawn.
2. Add the rum, lime and syrup, then fill with crushed ice and stir up from the bottom.
3. Top with soda and add a fresh sprig of mint to smell as you drink.
