1
Muddle 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 crush the mint leaves, releasing their essential oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Simple Syrup and Rum
Pour in the simple syrup and white rum. Stir gently to combine the ingredients without losing too much of the mint's flavor.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to your preference, leaving some space at the top for the club soda.
4
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice and mixture. This will help to mix the drink without losing all the carbonation.
5
Garnish
Garnish the drink with two slices of lime and a couple of sprigs of mint. You can also add a straw for easy sipping.
6
Serve
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
