- 1 oz white rum 2 tablespoons
- 4 oz soda water ½ cup

Instructions
Muddle the Mint:

Serve:
- Fill a hurricane or highball glass with ice. Strain the liquid from the shaker into the glass. Top off with soda water.
Garnish:

Notes
- Mint Leaves: Clap the mint leaves between your hands before muddling to release their oils more effectively.
- Limoncello: Using high-quality limoncello will significantly enhance the flavor of this cocktail.
- Clear Ice: For a stunning presentation, use clear ice cubes.
