1
Muddle the 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 muddle the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear them too much.
2
Add Simple Syrup
Pour the simple syrup into the glass with the muddled mint and lime. This adds sweetness to the cocktail.
3
Add Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass and stir gently to mix the ingredients together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes. This will chill the mixture and prepare it for the club soda.
5
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. This will give the mojito its refreshing fizz.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Stir gently before drinking and enjoy your refreshing cocktail!
