Mojito Recipe

Preparation Instructions

1. 1

   Muddle the 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 the mint leaves to release their oils and combine with the sugar.

2. 2

   Add Lime Juice

   Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from one half into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar. You can also add the other half for extra lime flavor if desired.

3. 3

   Mix with Rum

   Pour the white rum into the glass, mixing it gently with the muddled mint, sugar, and lime juice until the sugar is mostly dissolved.

4. 4

   Add Ice

   Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

5. 5

   Top with Club Soda

   Pour club soda over the ice, filling the glass to the brim. Stir gently to combine all ingredients.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve

   Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a slice of lime, if desired. Serve immediately with a straw.
