• Cut your lime in half slice up one half and juice the other half
• slice your sugar cane sticks into thin strips
• In a glass, add the sugar, chopped lime, lime juice, mint leaves and vodka
• With a muddler, crush together all the ingredients for about one minute, the mint and lemon will become aromatic
• Fill the glass to the brim with crushed ice
• Then top off with seltzer water and stir thoroughly to mix the sugar, lime and vodka all together with the seltzer water.

Greedy Tips:

• Don't get bogged down with the fancy utensils, the only thing I purchased was the alcohol measure just so that I had the exact ounce measurements.
• To muddle the mint and lime I used my tart tamper instead of a traditional muddler.
• If you don't like it too minty use 3 leaves instead of 5, the more you crush the flavors together the more the mint and lemon release their flavors
