1
Muddle the Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves and lime, releasing their oils and juice. Be careful not to shred the mint leaves too much.
2
Add Simple Syrup and Rum
Pour in the simple syrup and the white rum. Stir gently to combine the ingredients well.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes, packing them tightly to keep the drink cold.
4
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice, allowing it to mix with the other ingredients. You can adjust the amount of club soda based on your taste preference.
5
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a sprig of mint and a wedge of lime. Serve with a straw and enjoy your refreshing cocktail!
