1
Muddle Mint and Lime
In a sturdy glass or cocktail shaker, place the fresh mint leaves and lime juice. Use a muddler or the back of a spoon to gently press down on the mint leaves to release their oils, being careful not to tear them too much. This step enhances the flavor of the cocktail.
2
Add Rum and Simple Syrup
Pour in the white rum and simple syrup into the muddled mint and lime mixture. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
3
Mix with Club Soda
Fill the glass with ice cubes, then top it off with club soda. Stir gently to mix, ensuring the ingredients are well combined.
4
Garnish and Serve
Garnish your mojito with a lime wedge and additional mint leaves for a refreshing presentation. Serve immediately with a straw.
