1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their essential oils and mix them with the sugar. Be careful not to shred the leaves; just bruise them enough to combine their flavors.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar. Stir gently to dissolve the sugar completely in the lime juice.
3
Mix in the Rum
Add the white rum to the mixture and stir well to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for the club soda.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine.

6
Add Garnish
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint on top for a refreshing presentation.
7
Serve
Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
