1
Muddle Mint and Sugar
In a sturdy glass, place the fresh mint leaves and granulated sugar. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently crush the mint leaves. This releases the essential oils and flavors of the mint, mixing them with the sugar.
2
Add Lime Juice
Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice from both halves into the glass. You can also drop one half into the glass for extra flavor. Mix well to dissolve the sugar.
3
Add Rum
Pour the white rum into the glass. Stir gently to combine the rum with the mint and lime mixture.
4
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes. You can either use crushed ice or whole cubes, depending on your preference.
5
Top with Club Soda
Pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is filled. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients without losing the carbonation.
6
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with a sprig of fresh mint and a lime wedge on the rim of the glass. Serve immediately with a straw, and enjoy your refreshing mojito!
