Mojito Ingredients

Method

Mojito Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Take a highball glass and add the fresh mint leaves to the bottom.

  2. 2

    Muddle Ingredients

    Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently muddle the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to shred them excessively.

  3. 3

    Add Lime Juice and Simple Syrup

    Pour in the fresh lime juice and simple syrup over the muddled mint. Continue to muddle gently for a few seconds to combine the flavors.

  4. 4

    Add Rum

    Pour in the Captain Morgan white rum into the mixture.

  5. 5

    Mix with Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes and stir the mixture well to combine all the ingredients.

  6. 6

    Top with Club Soda

    Pour the club soda over the ice and stir once to mix everything together.

  7. 7

    Add Optional Raspberry Puree

    If using, drizzle the raspberry puree on top. It will slowly mix into the drink for a lovely visual effect.

  8. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a few fresh mint leaves. Serve immediately with a straw.
