1
Muddle the mint and lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves and sugar together, releasing the mint's essential oils and flavor. Then, cut the lime into wedges and add them to the glass. Muddle again to release the lime juice.
2
Add rum
Pour the white rum over the muddled mint and lime mixture in the glass. Stir gently to combine the flavors.
3
Add ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top, ensuring the mixture is chilled.
4
Top with club soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. This will add a refreshing fizz to your mojito.
5
Garnish and serve
Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wheel on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
