1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves with the sugar to release the mint oils. Do this for about 10-15 seconds.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime into wedges and squeeze the juice into the glass. You can also drop the wedges into the glass for added flavor. Muddle gently again to combine the lime juice with the mint and sugar mixture.
3
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum into the glass and stir well to mix all the ingredients together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full, giving it a gentle stir to combine the ingredients without losing too much fizz.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of mint or a lime wedge. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
