Preparation Steps
- 1
Muddle the Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Cut the lime into wedges and add to the glass. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint and lime to release the juices and oils. Be careful not to tear the mint leaves too much; just enough to release their flavor.

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

Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes. You can crush the ice if you prefer a slushy texture or use whole cubes for a classic mojito.
