Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle Mint and Lime

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils, being careful not to tear them too much.

  2. 2

    Add Simple Syrup and Rum

    Pour in the simple syrup and white rum over the muddled mint and lime mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them lightly to maximize the chill.

  4. 4

    Top with Club Soda

    Pour the club soda over the ice, filling the glass to the top.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Add Garnishes

    Garnish the cocktail with a sprig of mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass for an added touch of freshness and presentation.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately with a straw or a stirring stick and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
