Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint and Sugar

    In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the mint leaves into the sugar to release the mint oils. Do this for about 15-20 seconds.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour in the fresh lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Mix in the Rum

    Add the Bacardi rum to the glass and stir to blend all the ingredients together.

  4. 4

    Add Club Soda

    Top the mixture with club soda, pouring slowly to avoid excessive fizz. Stir gently to combine.

Garnishing

  1. 5

    Garnish the Drink

    Add the lime wedges and mint sprigs on top for garnish. You can also add additional mint leaves if desired.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately over ice and enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
