1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press and twist the leaves to release the mint oils and mix with the sugar. Do this for about 30 seconds to ensure the flavors meld.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour in the freshly squeezed lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture, stirring gently to dissolve the sugar completely.
3
Mix in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass and mix well to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, almost to the top.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice and the mixture until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine, but be careful not to lose the carbonation.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with lime wedges and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw for easy sipping.
