1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to shred the leaves too much; you want to bruise them to enhance the flavor.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients and dissolve the sugar.
3
Incorporate the Rum
Add the white rum to the mixture, stirring once more to blend all the flavors together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top. This will help keep your mojito chilled and refreshing.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. This adds a fizzy touch to your mojito.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with lime wedges and sprigs of mint. Serve immediately with a straw for stirring and sipping.
