3. Once the mango, mint, and lime are well combined, add your sugarcane juice or brown sugar, and the rum.
4. Shake vigorously for about thirty seconds, enough to mix all the ingredients thoroughly.
5. Now, strain this mixture into two glasses filled with ice, topping each glass off with soda water to give it a nice carbonated kick.
