Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle Mint and Lime

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

  2. 2

    Add Rum and Simple Syrup

    Pour the white rum and simple syrup into the glass with the muddled mint and lime. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.

  3. 3

    Add Club Soda

    Fill the glass with ice and top off with club soda. Give the mixture a gentle stir to combine all the ingredients without losing the fizz.

Garnishing

  1. 4

    Garnish the Mojito

    Garnish the cocktail with lime wedges and mint sprigs for a refreshing presentation. You may also add a straw if desired.
