1
Muddle the Mint and Lime Juice
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press and twist the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Simple Syrup
Pour in the simple syrup over the muddled mint and lime mixture. Stir gently to combine.
3
Add Rum and Ice
Pour the white rum into the glass. Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
4
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice and rum mixture, allowing it to fizz and mix thoroughly. Adjust the amount of club soda to taste.
5
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer.
