Mojito Recipe

Mojito Preparation

1. 1

   Muddle the Mint

   In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves and sugar together. This releases the essential oils from the mint, which will flavor the drink.

2. 2

   Add Lime Juice

   Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass, adding the lime juice to the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine.

3. 3

   Pour in the Rum

   Add the white rum to the glass. Stir the mixture again to blend all the flavors together.

4. 4

   Add Ice

   Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

5. 5

   Top with Club Soda

   Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. This will add the fizzy element to your mojito.

6. 6

   Garnish and Serve

   Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a slice of lime if desired. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing drink!
