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 press the mint leaves against the sides of the glass to release the mint oils. Do not shred the leaves; just bruise them lightly.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the lime juice into the glass with the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the flavors.
3
Add the Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass. Stir the mixture again to ensure that all ingredients are well combined.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top. This will chill the drink and keep it refreshing.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice-filled glass, filling it to the rim. This will add fizz and balance the sweetness of the drink.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the mojito with lime slices and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw or stirrer for mixing.
