1
Prepare Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves. Using a muddler, gently press the mint leaves to release their oils, being careful not to tear them too much.
2
Add Sugar
Sprinkle granulated sugar over the muddled mint leaves. This will help to further extract the mint flavor as you continue to muddle.
3
Add Lime Juice and Rum
Pour in the fresh lime juice and white rum over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Muddle gently again to combine the ingredients.
4
Finish with Club Soda
Fill the glass with ice cubes, then top it off with club soda. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
5
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of fresh mint. Enjoy your refreshing mojito!
