1
Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add 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 oils while mixing them with the sugar. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. The lime juice will help dissolve the sugar and enhance the mint flavor.
3
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum over the muddled mint, sugar, and lime juice mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to your desired level. This will help chill the drink.
5
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice and mixture. This will add fizz and lighten the drink.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing drink!
