1
Muddle the Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves, releasing their oils. Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice of one half into the glass. Drop the squeezed lime half into the glass as well.
2
Mix the Ingredients
Continue to muddle the mint, sugar, and lime together until well combined. The sugar should begin to dissolve into the lime juice.
3
Add the Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass over the muddled mixture. Stir gently to combine.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them in gently if necessary.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix everything together.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of mint and a lime wedge if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
