Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Muddle the Mint and Sugar

    In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves, releasing their essential oils and mixing them with the sugar.

  2. 2

    Add Lime Juice

    Pour the fresh lime juice into the glass over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine.

  3. 3

    Add Rum

    Pour in the white rum and stir the mixture well to ensure the sugar dissolves completely.

  4. 4

    Top with Club Soda

    Add ice to the glass if desired, then top off the drink with club soda, gently stirring to combine.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish the mojito with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw.
