In a cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and white granulated sugar.
Using a muddler, gently mash (muddle) the mint leaves and sugar to release the mint's natural oils.
Pour in the fresh lime juice, white rum, simple syrup, and vodka.
Add a cup of ice cubes to the shaker, then secure the lid tightly.
Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds to thoroughly combine and chill the ingredients.
Strain the mixture into a chilled martini glass, ensuring no ice or mint leaves enter the glass.
Optional: Add a splash of club soda on top for an extra fizzy touch.
Garnish the drink with a lime wheel on the rim of the glass and a sprig of mint for a fresh presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
