1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler to gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils and mix with the sugar. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. You can also drop one half into the glass for extra flavor. Stir the mixture gently to combine the mint, sugar, and lime juice.
3
Pour in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass and stir gently to mix all the ingredients together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for soda water.
5
Top with Soda Water
Pour the soda water over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without losing the fizz.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
