You may or may not know how to prepare a classic Mojito. The Southside, however, is prepared by putting all the ingredients except the soda water into your shaker. Then add ice and shake until very cool. Now strain over ice into a hurricane glass and top it up with soda water. Stir with a long cocktail spoon and garnish with additional mint leaves. Instead of the lemon juice you can also use lime juice which would get you closer to the original Mojito recipe. The lemon, however, is more reserved in terms of flavour and leaves room for the mint leaves to develop their full aroma.
