Mojito Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lime

    Cut the lime into quarters. Squeeze the juice from two of the quarters into a glass, and add the remaining quarters to the glass for garnish.

  2. 2

    Muddle the Mint and Sugar

    Add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar to the glass with lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves and sugar to release the mint oils and dissolve the sugar.

  3. 3

    Add Rum

    Pour in the white rum over the muddled mixture in the glass.

  4. 4

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes to your preference.

  5. 5

    Top with Club Soda

    Pour the club soda over the ice, filling the glass. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with additional mint leaves and a lime wedge if desired, then serve immediately with a straw.
