Mojito Ingredients

Method

Mojito Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle Mint and Lime

    In a sturdy glass, add fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear them too much.

  2. 2

    Add Rum and Syrup

    Pour in the white rum and simple syrup. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

  3. 3

    Add Ice

    Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.

  4. 4

    Top with Club Soda

    Pour club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint for a refreshing touch.
