1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press the mint leaves against the bottom of the glass to release their oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine and dissolve the sugar.
3
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum and stir again to mix all the ingredients together.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top, ensuring that the mint and rum mixture is well combined with the ice.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. The soda will add fizz and balance the drink.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer, and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
