I think two things might enhance your experience. The first is using simple syrup instead of sugar (2 parts sugar, 1 part water, brought to a boil until the sugar is clear, then cooled).

The second is mixing briefly after you pour in the soda. Stir gently from the bottom up. It will bring the mint oil and the syrup to the top.

And to the guy who suggested using 7-up instead of soda. Ick! You don't use sugar, too, do you? It would taste like rum-flavored PEZ.
