Put sugar, a dash of sparkling water (soda water) and 3-4 twigs of fresh lemon per regular-sized glass
in a glass and crush them. Pour this mixture in the tumbler (old-fashioned glass). Fill completely with
crushed ice and add the cognac (brandy). Stir slightly and garnish with twigs of fresh mint.
If you like, top the drink with a dash of dark rum and serve with straws.
Traditionally this drink has been garnished with twigs of fresh mint, grapes, slices of orange, slices of pineapple and
slices of strawberry... quite a fruit salad! Give it a try, it's delicious and looks just great!
