1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils while mixing them with the sugar. Do this until the mint is fragrant and the sugar starts to dissolve.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. Be sure to catch any seeds. Continue to muddle gently to combine the lime juice with the mint and sugar mixture.
3
Pour in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass and stir the mixture well to combine all the flavors.
4
Add Club Soda
Fill the glass with ice cubes, then pour the club soda over the top. Stir gently to mix everything together.
5
Garnish
Garnish your mojito with a sprig of mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass.
