1
Muddle the 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 aroma. Do this for about 10 seconds.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the fresh lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar. Stir gently to combine the ingredients.
3
Add Rum
Pour the white rum into the mixture and stir again to ensure all the ingredients are well mixed.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes until it is nearly full.
5
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. This will help maintain the carbonation.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the cocktail with lime wedges and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
