1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves to release their essential oils and combine them with the sugar.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from one half into the glass. Drop the other half into the glass for added flavor.
3
Pour in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass, pouring it over the muddled mint, sugar, and lime mixture.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them in tightly to keep the drink chilled.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice-filled glass to fill it, gently stirring to combine all ingredients without disturbing the mint leaves too much.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with lime wedges and a sprig of mint. Serve with a straw and enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
