1
Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, add 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 and mix with the sugar. Do this for about 10-15 seconds.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from one half into the glass. You can also drop the squeezed half into the glass for added flavor. Muddle the mixture again gently to combine.
3
Add Rum
Pour in the white rum over the muddled mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving a little space at the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix the layers without losing the carbonation.
6
Garnish
Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw.
