1
Prepare the Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the mint leaves to release their essential oils. Be careful not to tear them too much.
2
Add Lime and Sugar
Cut the lime into wedges. Squeeze the juice from the wedges over the muddled mint leaves, then drop the wedges into the glass. Sprinkle the granulated sugar over the mixture.
3
Muddle the Ingredients
Gently muddle the mint, lime juice, and sugar together. This will help dissolve the sugar and blend the flavors.
4
Add the Rum
Pour in the white rum over the muddled mint and lime mixture. Stir gently to combine.
5
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
6
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to mix.
7
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of mint and serve with a straw. Enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
