1
Muddle the Ingredients
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Squeeze the juice from half of the lime and add it to the glass. With a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils and mix with the sugar and lime juice. Be careful not to shred the mint too much.
2
Add the Rum
Pour in the white rum over the muddled mixture and stir gently to combine.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top.
4
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is full. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without losing the fizz.

5
Garnish the Drink
Add a sprig of fresh mint on top and a wedge of lime on the rim of the glass for garnish.
6
Serve
Serve immediately with a straw or a stirring stick, and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
