Mojito Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint and Sugar

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves with the sugar. This releases the mint oils and helps dissolve the sugar.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir it gently to combine the flavors.

  3. 3

    Incorporate the Rum

    Add the white rum to the mixture and stir well to combine all the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top, ensuring the ice does not overflow.

  5. 5

    Top with Club Soda

    Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. This adds a refreshing fizz to your mojito.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw for easy sipping.
