Fill the glass with ice and top with soda water to your preference.
Finish with a fresh mint leaf and a lime wheel for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Pro Tips
Be gentle when muddling mint to avoid tearing the leaves, which can release bitter flavors.
Use freshly squeezed lime juice for the best balance of tartness and freshness.
Chill the soda water beforehand for a crisp and refreshing finish.
