1
Muddle Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and the fresh lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press and twist the mint leaves to release their essential oils, being careful not to tear them too much.
2
Add Rum and Simple Syrup
Pour in the white rum and simple syrup over the muddled mint and lime. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for the club soda.
4
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is nearly full. This will give the cocktail a refreshing fizz.
5
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing cocktail!
