Mojito Preparation Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Mint
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, combine the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.

Add Lime Juice
Pour in the lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
- 3
Add Rum
Add the white rum to the mixture and stir well to ensure that the sugar dissolves completely.
- 4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top, packing it lightly.
- 5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice, filling the glass to the brim. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without disturbing the mint leaves too much.
- 6
Garnish
Garnish the drink with lime wedges and a sprig of mint for an attractive presentation.
