Mojito Ingredients

Method

Mojito Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint and Lime

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Squeeze the juice from the lime and add the lime wedges to the glass. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint and lime together to release their flavors. Be careful not to shred the mint leaves too much.

  2. 2

    Add the Rum

    Pour the white rum over the muddled mint and lime mixture in the glass.

  3. 3

    Mix with Club Soda

    Fill the glass with ice cubes and top it off with club soda. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
