1
Muddle the Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils and mix them with the sugar. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Pour the lime juice over the muddled mint and sugar mixture. Stir gently to combine the ingredients, allowing the sugar to dissolve slightly.
3
Mix in the Rum
Add the white rum to the glass and stir again to blend the flavors.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, leaving some space at the top for the club soda.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without losing the carbonation.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the mojito with lime wedges and a sprig of mint. Serve immediately with a straw, if desired.
