Mojito Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Muddle Mint and Sugar

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves against the bottom of the glass. This releases the mint oils and helps dissolve the sugar.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour the freshly squeezed lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

  3. 3

    Pour in the Rum

    Add the white rum to the glass and stir again to mix all the flavors together.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them in tightly for a refreshing chill.

  5. 5

    Top with Club Soda

    Slowly pour the club soda over the ice-filled glass. This will give your mojito a refreshing fizz.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw or enjoy it as is!
