1
Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press and twist the mint leaves with the sugar to release the mint oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar. You can also drop the lime halves into the glass for added flavor.
3
Mix with Rum
Pour in the white rum into the glass, and give it a gentle stir to combine all the ingredients together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes until it's almost full.
5
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. This will add fizz to the cocktail.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the mojito with lime wedges and mint sprigs. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing cocktail!
