1
Muddle Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils and flavor. Be careful not to tear the leaves into small pieces.
2
Add Simple Syrup and Rum
Pour in the simple syrup and white rum over the muddled mint and lime mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for the club soda.
4
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is nearly full. This will help to mix the drink without losing carbonation.
5
Garnish
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint on top for an extra touch of freshness.
