1
Muddle the Mint
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves with the sugar to release the mint oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. Avoid letting any seeds fall into the mixture. If you prefer, you can also cut the lime into wedges and muddle it with the mint and sugar.
3
Mix in the Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass over the muddled mint and lime mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes until it’s almost full.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. You can adjust the amount of club soda based on your taste preference.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
