1
Prepare the Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves. Cut the lime into wedges and add them to the glass. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently muddle the mint and lime together, releasing the mint oils and lime juice.
2
Add Sugar
Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the muddled mint and lime mixture. Use the muddler again to mix everything together until the sugar starts to dissolve.
3
Mix in Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass over the muddled mixture. Stir gently to combine all the flavors.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour club soda over the ice until the glass is full. This will give the mojito its refreshing fizz.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint on top and a slice of lime if desired. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer.
