Mojito Ingredients

Method

Mojito Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint and sugar together. This releases the essential oils from the mint and helps to dissolve the sugar.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Cut the lime into halves and squeeze the juice into the glass. You can also drop in the lime halves for extra flavor.

  3. 3

    Mix with Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes and stir well to combine the mint, sugar, and lime juice.

  4. 4

    Add Sparkling Water

    Pour sparkling water over the mixture in the glass. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with lime wedges and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw.
