1. Prepare glass and mint
Place 10 fresh mint leaves in a sturdy highball or Collins glass. Add 0.75 oz fresh lime juice and 0.5 oz simple syrup to the glass.
2. Muddle
Gently muddle the mint, lime juice, and simple syrup 6–8 times with a muddler or the back of a spoon — press just enough to bruise the leaves and release aroma, avoid shredding to prevent bitterness.
3. Optional raspberry variation
If making the raspberry mojito, add 3 fresh raspberries to the glass before or during muddling and press until the berries are broken and combined with the mint and lime. Proceed with the remaining steps.
4. Add rum and ice
Pour 1 oz Captain Morgan White Rum into the glass. Fill the glass with crushed ice (about 1 cup), packing it lightly to the top.
5. Top and stir
Top with 2 oz club soda. Using a long spoon, gently stir 6–8 times from bottom to top to integrate rum, lime, syrup, and mint without overworking the mint.
6. Garnish and serve
Garnish with a lime wedge or wheel and a small mint sprig. Serve with a straw positioned to sip through the mint. Adjust to taste with additional simple syrup or lime if desired.
