1
Prepare the Mint
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves to release their essential oils, being careful not to shred them too much.
2
Add Sugar and Lime Juice
Add the granulated sugar and fresh lime juice to the glass with the mint. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well combined with the mint.
3
Add the Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass and stir the mixture again to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, allowing the ice to rise to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is nearly full. Stir gently to combine.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the drink with lime wedges and mint sprigs. Serve immediately with a straw, and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
