1
Muddle Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and the lime cut into wedges. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint and lime to release their flavors. Do not over-muddle, as you want to avoid tearing the mint leaves excessively.
2
Add Rum and Simple Syrup
Pour in the white rum and the simple syrup over the muddled mint and lime. Stir gently to combine the ingredients and dissolve the simple syrup.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for the club soda.
4
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix the ingredients while ensuring the mint stays at the bottom.
5
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your Mojito with a sprig of mint and a wedge of lime on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
