Ingredients

  • 2 ounces white rum
  • 1 ounce lime juice
  • 2 teaspoon sugar
  • 4-5 mint leaves
  • ½ teaspoon chaat masala
  • ¼ teaspoon roasted cumin powder
  • Soda water
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

  • In a glass, muddle together the lime juice, sugar, mint leaves, chaat masala, and cumin powder until the sugar dissolves.
  • Add white rum and a handful of ice cubes to the glass.
  • Top up with soda water and stir gently.
  • Garnish with mint leaves and a lime wedge.

Notes

When muddling the mint leaves and spices, be gentle. You want to release the flavors without turning the mint bitter.
Taste the mixture before adding soda water to ensure the sweetness is to your liking. Adjust with additional simple syrup or lime juice as needed.
